in the outdoor field. Where the client needs my services. When my
workday ends, I go to my room to rest, sometimes I read the
manuals of the teams where I work, or I start doing the tasks of the
university in which I am studying. Industrial Engineering, because
I am preparing myself at the UNAD to continue advancing in life
and in the company where I work. I do not see much television
anymore because I do not have time, now I read much more than
before.
JAVIER The company Komatsu is located in the municipality of Loma
SUAREZ Cesar, provides repair services, advice and sale of spare parts for
mining equipment; his work area is very large and outdoors, has
about 200 workers, the municipality of La Loma has an
