Accomplishments
I am a highly motivated retired heavy equipment operator looking to return to earth moving. Over a 25 year period, I learned most of what you could about Residential, commercial, highway, GPS, mINE /UNDERGROUND,/above,/demolition, clearing,, /utilities, trenching,back fill, all while practicing safe operating procedures, without accident or injury.
I possess excellent work habits and promptness, a pet peeve of mine.
coming out og retirement at 66 and continuing on with what I love to do. l be my final achievements of life.
i am an ex NAVY bilateral amputee 6inches below both knees. T he only downfall I experience is I move a little. slower, and do need a litte freshing up but I can still ride a bike
I have no doubt that I can be a great factor to you company, by sh;owing promptness, exercising safe work habits , and the willingness to learn and pay attention. Accident's happen because someone wasn't.
I dont smoke, drugs, and quit drinking in 2000 as with smoking.
Those two things were a major accomplishment. I know you will be happy if you give me the chance to be part of your team.
I'm not just an operator, but many facet's of different occupations.
