2)
a) P
b) P+
3) It has helped me plan out what I want to do in the future and also reassure myself that this is the career that I want to focus on.
4) Probably talked a little slower and I feel like there might be a few examples I could have gone through in a more professional manner.
5) It has helped me discover the path I am to take in order to become a lineman and also has helped me find a college that focuses mainly on my future career. My mentorship has given me a reliable source that i can rely on in the future to help guide me if i am to get stuck anywhere in the process of me becoming a lineman.

Exit Interview
1. EQ: How can a lineman best reduce the risk of injury or fatality on the job?
2. From the beginning of the year I found my first answer, a tailgate with my mentors help. But when the second answer was assigned I wasn't sure at all what else to choose. One day at mentor ship around January , my mentor Mark Werndorf who works for LA Water & Power, showed me a lineman pyramid. Just like there is a pyramid for all the food categories, there was one made for lineman. What we ended up doing was spitting it in half. Tailgate went under Planning & Preparation so it wasn't too hard transitioning to it. But my second answer had a lot of information that wasn't necessarily accessible by internet. But that pyramid contained the knowledge of many experienced lineman who've edited it and gave their opinions about. Now that I have my two answers I am able to see how all my research fits into both my answers and especially my first and best answer.
3. I actually didn't face many problems except for the fact that most of my research is pretty technical and since I don't have the inside experience that teaches what I'm reading, it's going to make it a bit difficult to put everything that I'm learning into more simplistic words for the class and my final presentation.
4. The biggest source has been my mentor, when ever there is something I didn't understand about my research I wrote it down and asked him, he gave me full on technical and easy to understand definitions and examples. The second is biggest source is, "The Guidebook for Lineman & Cableman". Has every technical aspect of the job and gives scenarios, examples, and definitions of all the equipment and vehicles they use.
- Planning & Preparation play an important role in keeping a lineman safe.
- Work Exercises & Proficiency help a lineman maintain the skills needed to be safe on the job.
- Job briefing helps reduce the risk of injury or fatality.

c) By talking to my mentor will be more than enough proof because we have been working hard to move things out of the way and sort what I need to complete. We have planned out the activity and I made a layout of what will be on my slides so he can evaluate it and see what to fix so that we can prepare for the final presentation.
