Deer Park

Summary

Most of the job training and skills I acquired was from working in the oilfield. I learned from some of the best in the industry and was also taught how to work as a team or individual. To also complete a job task with Safety and pride. I learned various different hands on training and general knowledge of how to not only complete a job task, but to also complete the job Safely. Most of the jobs I've worked have all been Hazardous in some form or fashion from working in factories, drilling rig floors, or working in various parts of the oilfield. Not only did I learn hands on training and gain knowledge of working with tools, but also operating different types of mechanical equipment amd what to listen or look for when something is wrong. I also learned communication skills in the process.
