Case 2: Owner’s Contracts
OWNER
ARCHITECT GENERAL CONSTRACTOR
CONSULTANTS SUBCONTRACTOR
During this situation I see the owner being very cheap. The architect has to communicate with each supplier because there is no general contractor. However, this will cause many delays because the architect basically has most of the work on his hand. This situation will take forever to satisfy. The owner make this situation worst because he’s contracted with many different material supplies and specialty subcontractor directly and not through the general contractor. If there was an general contractor the job would flow better under control and supervision.

-Dream Career
On my last lap at the New York City College of Technology my future plan is to own a business/ firm. However, I see myself working for the government doing major city projects. The main reason I would like to work with the city is that it will open my knowledge more to better opportunities. Overall, for my career goals I want to be a license architect and from having a license this will push me more on owning my business. Also, I am interested in doing international work for example working back home in my country Jamaica West Indies. The main reason I list more than one career goals to focus on is that I don’t want to settle for only one career I want to enlarge my skills to do more than one things in life. From a young age growing up I always motivate myself because from deep inside I know am capable of doing one or more things during the same time period. However, I have plan that after I graduate from college I will be doing like two jobs just to learn more in the architecture field.
