Problem Solver, Civil Engineer, Passion for Improving the Communities in Which We Live and Work. The Recovering Consultant.
My name is Michael (Hi Michael) and I am a recovering consultant. At the first place I worked post college, the president of the company would hold monthly staff meetings. I can remember him talking a lot about his passion for Civil Engineering, I can distinctly remember one occasion where he jumped on the table in excitement just talking about a project. 21 year old me looks at my buddy sitting next to me and says, I must be doing something wrong because I don’t have a passion for anything like that. I had passion for the Cubs, the Packers, and of course the Kentucky Wildcats, but a passion for engineering? Nope. I honestly don’t know why I even went into engineering. I was good at math and science, and my rural high school was known for producing good engineers, so that is what I did. Four years of college and boom I am an engineer. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed working on projects and being a problem solver, but even after several years, would I call it a passion? Nope. I enjoyed telling my family I designed this road or this parking lot, or helped this community with their water and sewer, but honestly it was just a job. I had more of a passion proving the critics and neigh-sayers wrong. It probably wasn’t until recently that I actually could relate to the guy I was talking about earlier in my post. Did you know that at least 930,000 people in US cities lack sustained access to basic sanitation and at least 610,000 people to basic water access? I am not talking about a third world country here, I am talking about the United States. I can remember watching Superstorm Sandy hit the northeast back in 2012. The first few days went ok, but at about the third day, without basic services, things got pretty crazy. You can generally survive awhile without power, but just a few days of not being able to turn on the tap or flush your toilet is unlivable. I say all this because if you don’t currently have a passion for what you do, it may come, or it may not. Give it a chance and you may be surprised. Focus on something everyday that you believe makes a positive impact on your surroundings and be proud of that. I have a passion for improving the lives of the communities in which we work and live. I don’t believe I will jump on a desk anytime soon and proclaim it, but who knows. I never thought I would wear a pineapple Hawaiian shirt to work on a Friday either. #civilengineering #consulting #recoveringconsultant #2024goals #leadership #growing #learning #mentorship

About 30% of America’s roads are in poor condition. Much of the interstate highway system is built on foundations 50-60 years old. To visualize the severity of this problem, you can look at Texas Department of Transportation. If you took every lane mile owned by TXDOT alone, you could drive around the earth’s circumference 8x, not including city streets or county roads. That’s just one of 50 states (albeit one of the largest). Why should you care? Well, to be frank, we don’t have the workforce to do this in a timely manner. Here how YOU can help: • Infrastructure Companies — pay well, create a culture that empowers people young and old, and provide them with a career path. • Construction Workers — seek purpose in your work. What you do is damn important and the work you do matters greatly to the success of society. • Everyone Else — Construction is a ridiculously noble career. The ball is in your court to help change society’s view of blue collar work. Check your bias, respect the people who make your infrastructure possible, and speak up next time you hear someone bashing Blue Collar humans. Who knows? Maybe a career in construction is where you’ll find your passion and purpose. No matter who you are, you can play a part in solving our society’s most glaring infrastructure problem. • #betterdirtworld #bluecollar #heavyequipment #roadconstruction #infrastructure #heavyequipmentnation

Employee Spotlight: Get to know Parker Williams, RPLS, EIT, a Project Surveyor in our Houston Baseline | DCCM office! 🍳 What do you like to do in your free time? In my free time, I enjoy cooking a wide range of cuisines. I mainly focus on recipes from the Mediterranean region. My culinary journey began after I got married and obtained all sorts of cooking utensils and gadgets. ♟️ Do you have any unique hobbies? I thoroughly enjoy playing chess and reading books covering opening strategies, mid-game tactics, and end-game scenarios. 📐 If you could meet anyone—famous or not, living or dead, real or fictional—who would it be and why? I would love to have a chat with John Anthony West. He dedicated his life to ancient Egypt and discovered hidden engineering and science associated with the structures. 🎣 Where is your favorite place to be? I enjoy being out and about, I am not much of a homebody. Regarding places in the world, I love Cabo for the fishing, food, and weather. 💍 What would most people be most surprised to learn about you? I met my wife during my junior year in high school, and we have been happily together for 12 years. We got married in 2021. 🤝 What is your favorite/most rewarding thing about your job? The most rewarding thing about my job is giving the client a deliverable on time and having positive feedback from the client. #BinkleyBarfield #Baseline #BBIFOC #DCCM #Survey #ProjectSurveyor #EmployeeSpotlight #PowerOfOurPeople #Houston #Engineering #Surveying #Surveyors #CivilEngineering #DesignDevelopGrow
