: Between when you joined Steemit and now, what are some of the differences you've noticed on steemit?

🔶Mahadisalim: I joined the Steemit platform in September 2022. I have great memories of joining the Steemit platform.

Then, I became regular on the Steemit platform from the beginning of 2023. I told Steem For Bangladesh community admin @ripon0630 about my problems and he helped me to start fresh. I thank @ripon0630 because he inspired me in many ways.

Then @msharif bhai cooperated with 200 SP from his delicate project. Weekly and monthly community meetings have helped me a lot to improve post quality. Steemit platform and the Steem For Bangladesh community have merged with my soul.

When I was new to the Steemit platform I didn't understand many things. Steem For Bangladesh Community Monthly Meeting I never miss a single one. I used to listen to the words of the admins and moderators and later tried it myself. I started trying to make the writing quality and markdowns nice. I am learning more and more every day. I am reading the writings of the senior author and after seeing them I reduced my writing mistakes. However, I have now realized that it is not possible to do something in one day on the Steemit platform, like in work life. I have to write patiently and wait for success.

I now know of senior Steemians like you. Feel comfortable writing in all communities. But I'm still learning a lot from senior Steemians like you on the Steemit platform. But I feel comfortable writing now., However, I am doing better now

: * What are some of your achievements since you joined steemit?*

🔶Mahadisalim: Some achievements of my Steemit platform are: Getting support and following from Curators 01 and 02. My reputation score is 70+. I had my first dolphin 2 days ago and getting called for your interview etc.

: I know you are an electrician, what inspired you to pursue that profession in life?

🔶Mahadisalim: I was a very weak student when I was young. My family was very worried about me. I wanted to learn computer work. At one point I became interested in education and enrolled in university to study computer engineering. After a few days, I realized that the Electrical Engineers job sector is good. Then, I changed my technologies and moved to the electrical department. Honestly, all sectors are good if you are willing to learn and work hard.

---

---

: *For how many years now have you been practicing this profession and how do you feel about it? *

🔶Mahadisalim: *** I have been working in the electrical profession for twelve years. Although the work is risky, I am enjoying it very much. Day by day, I am learning new electrical work. I have a good electrical team. We always do teamwork. The biggest thing is that everyone is there for me when I'm in trouble. There is no end to learning so I want to learn more about electrical work.***

: What is the most exciting project you're currently working on?

🔶Mahadisalim: I am an electrical engineer, and I am the head of the electrical department. So I have to take full responsibility to solve the electrical problem. I have to plan the electrical work of the company. The work has to be done beautifully. My reputation is based on my work. I am free all day but suddenly at 1.00 pm when there is an electrical fault, I have to come to the factory and solve the problem quickly.

A few weeks ago, at 2.00 am, an electrical fire broke out in the 33 KV electrical substation room, destroying many equipment. I quickly came to the office and started working with my electrical team. An hour before, I interview you, I complete the task and reconnect the power. The company started production. I worked day and night for a whole week to solve the problem. This is the most exciting project of my work at the moment. Such, problems occur two to three times every year. The company has built trust in me on electrical work.

: Can you share any recent achievements or milestones in your career?

🔶Mahadisalim: The product of my company is the rod. Rods are made from iron by melting it into billets through various processes. The smelting of iron creates a lot of smoke in the air. The environment is polluted. The owner of our company assigned me the task of installing the smoke purification machine. I worked with an Indian company for about two months to set up smoke purification machines. In this, I was able to learn a lot and participate in the prevention of air pollution. The company is able to earn a lot of foreign exchange by selling the powder obtained after refining the smoke. The powder obtained from the smoke is exported to China. It is my recent work milestone.

I try to improve the electrical aspects of the company. Last year our company's electrical power factor charge was huge. I researched for about a month and figured out the problem. Currently, our company has zero electrical power factor charge. I completed the work at no cost to the company. An electrical engineer will understand the power factor charge. I know I work in a private company and I will have a job based on my work.

: As a solar installer, what would you like people to know about solar?

🔶Mahadisalim: At present, the price of electricity is increasing in our country. Then, the government is not able to provide an uninterrupted power supply. One of my favorite topics is solar power or renewable energy. I would like to do research on renewable energy if I get a chance. One day the importance of renewable energy will increase in our country or the world. If people know the benefits of renewable energy, everyone would use it. There is no substitute for renewable energy especially to save the earth.

The cost of solar power is very low. Costs are higher because we purchase from third parties. Once the solar power is set up there is no further cost of oil or other. I have installed solar power in my house and many of my friends at low cost. Currently planning a solar power plant for my company.

: Whose Steemit blog are you most entertained by and why?

🔶Mahadisalim: This question is very difficult for me to answer. I love to read not just one but a few of Steemian's blogs. Because by reading the blog I can know the culture of different countries. Love to read any blog. especially diary games and crypto-related blogs. But I love reading @sahmie's crypto blog. Whenever I get time I read diary blogs of writers from different countries..

: How do you balance your real life job with your blogging hobby?

🔶Mahadisalim: I wake up every day and make a schedule to blog on my Steemit platform. I write little by little between office work. Then, after the evening I go home and submit it. Try to post one every day. But I keep a certain time in the whole day to blog on the Steemit platform every day. Because writing on the Steemit platform has become a kind of addiction for me.
