Canfor is the biggest company in Houston and is one of the largest sawmills in the country. Since it opened, this sawmill has supplied the area with jobs and economic benefits. Everything is very structured, and there is a system for everything.
A lot of what we did was clean up a variety of machines. Depending on what was needed on a specific day, sometimes we painted, picked ice, or stacked loads of wood. The weekend cleanup crew handled the work that no one else had time to do.
By far the most physically demanding job I have had.
