I spent my time during this internship job shadowing and helping where needed. The second summer, I was sent to Ferris State University to get certified in asphalt testing so that I could help some of the employees test asphalt samples. In my third summer, I spent my time with the bridge crew inspecting bridges, scoping plans for bridges, and putting together plan bundles to have the bridges fixed.
