Louis Charles Merkel

• Completed complex repairs quickly by leveraging strong diagnostic skills and attention to detail.
• Increased customer satisfaction with prompt and knowledgeable support for various technical issues.

I applied and was accepted to reacquire my CDL license though a vigorous training regimen that included all the written and skill tests required by the state of Missouri. After obtaining my CDL during my first few runs, stress related medical issues led to my dismissal from Parkway. I am under a doctor's care and believe that I would thrive driving in a school bus in a smaller school district, such as Affton. Also, Affton is much closer to my home witch would relieve me of the stress of fighting I-64 traffic four times a day.

• Ensured safety compliance during daily bus routes, prioritizing student well-being.
• Conducted pre-trip inspections to maintain vehicle integrity and reliability.
• Communicated effectively with students and parents regarding schedules and safety procedures.
• Trained new drivers on operational protocols and safety measures for efficient service delivery.
