Summary

I HAVE WORKED AT KATON WOODS FOR THE LAST 15 YEARS. MY JOB DUTIES HAVE INCLUDED EVERYTHING FROM GOING TO PERMITTED CUTTING AREAS IN THE FOREST TO LOCATE AND CUT WOOD THEN LOAD AND TRANSPORT THE WOOD TO THE MILL. ONCE AT THE MILL, I WOULD TRIM AND CUT THE WOOD DEPENDING ON SIZE AND QUALITY INTO CEDAR SHAKES OR SHINGLES. THEN BUNDLE THEM AND STACK THEM UNTIL THEY WERE SOLD. I HAVE OPERATED AND MAINTAINED MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF SAWS AND EQUIPMENT INCLUDING SPLITTERS AND BANDING MACHINES. I AM ALSO EXPERIENCED AT DRIVING A FORK LIFT AND TRACKER. I ALWAYS FOLLOW SAFETY AND SANITATION PROCEDURES . I AM RELIABLE AND HARD WORKING. I CAN WORK INDEPENDENTLY AND AS A TEAM PLAYER. I AM A FAST LEARNER AND HAVE NO PROBLEM ASKING QUESTIONS.
