I went to work as a salt water disposal operator, I do have experience gauging tanks and separating the oil form the water. I got laid off from reef and got my class a cdl and wen to work over the road as a truck driver off and on from different trucking company's, i worked at key energy as a mechanic up until the laid a bunch of employee off including me. i went back to truck driving and eventually bought my own truck. i performed all the repairs and service on my own truck. I sold my truck because I'm tired of being away from the family for 3 to 4 weeks at a time. I'm looking for a good stable job for long term I'm a fast learner. I am willing to relocate if needed.
