Summary

I have 2 year worth of locating experience and 3 years of experience in this field. Hardly no operator experience but can run one if needed and willing to learn how to run one. I've loaded the drills we had a few times. I have experience with hydrovaccing but not with the trucks, I'm not sure if there's a difference between vac trucks and the vac trailers. I am more than willing to be put anywhere that I am needed even if it is outside the field of directional drilling. I'm not afraid to travel, I've been to Charles town WV, Saul Ste Marie Michigan, I forget where exactly in North Carolina, Lithia Springs Georgia, And I also forgot where at in Kentucky. I have done fiber bores my whole career. I would love to learn new things and be introduced to work that I already haven't explored. I have my osha 10 training. I have adult first aid/cpr/aed training. I'm pretty easy to get along with, shy at first but quick to warm up and can get along with just about anyone.

  • My main drill I located for was a vermeer 24x40 but I've also located for a 23x30, 40x55, and 18x20. I'm not exactly sure if that last one is correct or not but I know it was a little bit smaller than the 23x30. I have only located for vermeer drills
  • I have been in this field of work for 3 years with 2 of that being as a locator
  • I can operate heavy equipment but the most I can really do is moving the equipment from one location to another. I have back filled a little bit with an excavator but have not dug anything. Same thing with a drill basically. I can run the controls enough to move the head to where I need it but have not put a rod into the ground or pulled one out of the ground.
  • I have ran a 2000 gallon water truck before without cdl's
  • I have experience with vac-tanks or hydrovac. We mostly used those to pot hole utilities or blow rope through
  • I have no gas or water line bore experiences my career has strictly been fiber optic lines.
  • I have helped excavator operators set the boxes and pedestal into the ground as well.
  • I can back up a trailer or drive with a trailer decently.
