Construction
Started out as a pipe layer at age 18 for Farragut Ditching worked my way up to a 953 Track Loader Operator running it for 6 years. I then was able to get experience on the track hoe rubber tire and back hoe rubber tire loaders for total of 12 1/2 years. I then for 3 1/2 years ran 953 close cab track loader for Garney Constuction. Next 12 years ran dozers, and had my 1st experience with GPS on a D6 Dozer and on a 336 Excavator. At this time I only had experience in utility work. Next 5 years worked for Jeff Conley at Conley Construction some utility work and helped Jeff do his 1 st subdivision behind Rhea Medical Center. Past 4 1/2 years work for George Ratledge at Ratledge Construction where I have experience with GPS Tremble System, was made Foreman and completed 5 different subdivisions for him as a Pipe Foreman
