I was 18 when I first entered the Parisian workshops of Choisy-Le-Roi. I am 55 today.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, I started in crimping with a CAP as an adjuster, then I moved on to assembling insulators and tensioning devices. When I close my eyes, I see all the models I have worked on scrolling by. I know them by heart!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>In the era of riveting<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\n\u201cI learned my trade on all the machines, from the most artisanal to the current digital units. At the beginning, we didn\u2019t have a crimper, we pierced the tubes and riveted them. It was difficult manual work, which required strength and precision. I still remember the first return arm I worked on: the 204895!\u00a0<em>(aluminum tube with stock and end cap) \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I also knew the era of key presses, before the arrival of automated hydraulic presses, much safer and more precise.<\/p>\n<p>Now, there is no room for error, everything is ultra secure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pride in a job well done<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\n\u201cAs I am versatile, I like to share my knowledge with younger people.<br \/>\nThe Galland know-how is irreplaceable: assembling a IS requires extreme precision, to within 5 hundredths. You have to be skillful and patient. What I like to pass on is the pride of a job well done.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The family spirit<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nIn 2003, however, when Galland moved to the vast site of La Lande-de-Fronsac, in Gironde, Dominique Pelletier hesitated: &quot;I had all my family in Paris and I lived just a few minutes from the workshops. I told myself that I would miss this life. So Dominique Bec offered to take me to see the future site, so that I could get an idea. I liked the nature, the vines, the proximity of the Arcachon Basin. I stayed! And then, let&#039;s be honest: I would have had trouble finding the family spirit that reigns at Galland. We all know each other and the door to management remains open. The hierarchy is not a hindrance, decisions are made quickly. I like this simplicity.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wink <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Where does he get his nickname \u201cthe Shrimp\u201d from?<br \/>\n&quot;I&#039;m a big fan of Formula 1. When the French Grand Prix was held on the Magny-Cours circuit, I was in the stands, under the July sun.
