Summary
I graduated Goodhue High School in 2019, while in high school I was Working part-time at Loneoak dairy farm in goodhue. after I graduated and they sold the farm i decided to learn new skills so I started working as a Commercial Painter for Midwest Decorators in Rochester MN. after learning the skills of the trade I was interested in advancing in my career but the employer was not busy enough around the Rochester area so I decided to try something different. That is when I started working at Concast, Inc in Wanamingo for about a year after learning all about concrete and what they did at the plant i decided to start working at mauser packaging solutions in Cannon Falls, I stayed with them for about a year but after working around the Ammonia and all the other chemicals without proper ppe i would get severe nosebleeds and headaches and when i brought that up to the plant manager he got upset and laughed at me leading to my unfair termination at mauser packaging.
What i have learned is that my personality, social and bilingual skills will help me succeed in every career that I choose to follow. They help me advance in many ways. from teaching new coworkers to interpreting employers.
