Here are the things I’ve learned from my interior fitout work that I consider them life lessons.
Always Ask, Never Assume
Whether it’s clarifying a designer’s vision or confirming shopping plans, asking questions saves time, effort, and a lot of “Oh no, I thought you meant something else!”
Details Matter
Forgetting to double-check a socket placement can lead to costly rework, much like overlooking small daily habits can affect your long-term success. Paying attention to the little things always pays off.
Be Ready for the Unexpected
Surprise leakage during the Ceiling Closure Inspection? Unforeseen hiccups in life? They’re the same. Adaptability is key because surprises are inevitable.
Measure Twice, Cut Once
Whether it’s making template for glass or making decisions, a bit of extra preparation can save you from costly mistakes.
Haste makes Waste
Ever rushed through a site inspection and regretted it later? Life works the same way—taking your time ensures everything stays on track.
