What began as a frustrating evening on a remote road quickly turned into something unexpected.
Stranded with an engine failure after a work assignment, alone at midnight in the middle of nowhere, Jenny waited for help to arrive. When the tow truck finally showed up, it became much more than just a ride home.
For over 100 kilometres, the driver shared stories from life on the road — the long hours, the physical demands, and the genuine pride he took in his work. But what stayed with her most was his optimism for the future and his belief that engineering and innovation could make everyday working conditions safer, smarter, and better.
Somewhere along that journey, a simple breakdown became a source of inspiration. That night, she realised that engineering isn’t just about technology – it’s about creating solutions that improve everyday life for the people who rely on them.
