at CDC i worked on a tower in queen street. i started off in fit off where i was installing mixers and cooktops for the first couple of weeks before getting moved to rough ins. while working in the rough in crew i worked solo, roughing in the water and gas for apartments. this taught me alot about set out, reading plans, and how to work around other trades in a fast paced environment.
