I joined Canali when I was 18.
So, I have been working here for 26 years.
I oversee lining the enitre jacket.
It is a job that I like.
I am very methodical in my operations, I do it carefully.
I try not to make mistakes, to be very precise.
Even if I make a mistake, I take back the jacket, I undo the sewing it and repeat the operation.
I learned here, and I started from scratch with small pieces of fabric.
The first things they gave me were drawn pieces of paper, and I had to go over the stitches with the machine.
Over time, you acquire this method and you can see if the jacket fits, at a glance.
or if you missed a crease or made it too big or too small. It comes naturally.
It may seem difficult to see it.
It takes many months to get there, because you do not know people at first,
you feel like you are in a different world, the world of work, you feel catapulted here.
Also because I was 18.
I really hated the needle, the thread, the sewing machine.
Then, who would have thought?
Now I love this job. Honestly, I love it.
I have always been told “Remember that Canali doesn't want quantity but quality.”
The important thing is that the jackets I work on are precise.
We are making garments of great quality, and you cannot afford to make mistakes.
There is a job behind the job that needs to be done right.
I really see loyalty, within this company.
We all get along well, we work meticulously and with precision.
There is a good relationship, if there is a problem, we tell each other.
You feel at home here, so it really is as if this job is yours.
I truly hope to continue to work here until I retire.
And I hope that the company will always have new and innovative ideas
to put on the market, also because it is satisfying both for Canali as a company and for us as workers.
