I am willing to listen and learn to do things the way that you want them done.
I am starting a new career in my 40's because of epilepsy. I was in industrial construction and that is now a situation that is too dangerous with my disabilities. I am a person that learns fast, and I am used to always having to learn. We always had to take tests every time we needed to do anything new. When we go into a new facility we must go through their classes for entry to their facility. I believe I will be able to bring a new perspective to your business that you normally would not have. I have been at the top of my class since going back to school and have been on the presidents list the entire time. I am not halfway through my second year, and I am staying on top. Give me the opportunity to show you that I am the best choice for your company. Please let me help you put rocket boosters on your company and put this company on top of the business world. I am easy to have a good relationship with and do not mind working with anyone and I do not mind doing any job no matter how small. I am more than willing to start at the bottom and work my way up. Thank you for your time and consideration.
