Future Day 2022: Leonie Jost at the HAM Foundation
On the national Future Day 2022, 10-year-old Leonie, the daughter of our employee Markus Jost, gained an insight into the interesting everyday working life at the HAM Foundation in Burgdorf.
Work started at 7 o’clock in the painting shop. She was allowed to paint some parts of the historic Saurer truck 4 MH 2.
The first thing to do was to carefully degrease the parts.
Then Leonie got to apply rust-proofing primer to the parts with the paint spray gun.
Leonie was proud to then be able to do the painting in shadow black herself.
As the highlight of their day, Leonie’s ride into the future on the Bucher aircraft tractor. She will certainly keep the day in fond memory for a long time!
A successful day not only for Leonie, but for the whole team in Burgdorf!
