He was all the more excited to meet the colleagues in Pfullendorf and experience their daily work routine.<br>Nevertheless, any nervousness was unfounded: The team in Pfullendorf welcomed Leon openly, explained the processes to him, and supported him with questions.<\/p><p><strong>Familiar tasks from a new perspective<br \/><\/strong>Leon was able to apply his knowledge from Ha\u00dffurt in many areas, but also discovered differences. For example, different components are sometimes used in Pfullendorf, and the construction plans also differ in some areas. Leon gained the most from the different approach to task distribution.<br \/>He particularly remembered working on a multi-part control cabinet project. He was allowed to work independently on one section and follow the progress from the individual assembly to the finished control cabinet.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div
