I want to say that I am a very motivated person, I strive to do the best i can on any job that I do from start to finish, Weather it is mowing a lawn, or doing office work. I will also be working along with my employees to get things done, I will also stay late if I need to, And come in early if need be, or work a weekend if my employee needs a day off. Through out my resume I have done many things, from constructing, to running power tools and big equipment, I can also do plumbing and minor electric work. i am also good at looking up parts for equipment and fixing them. I am good at using Telephone, Cell Phone, Text, Email, using microsoft word, excel. I am also a very good people person, I can also get estimates for projects and work with company's for supplies.
