Additional Information

To save time I'll summarize; the end of my time in colorado and the circumstances explaining the end of my position at Alsco had to do with my ex-girlfriends health declining over a period of 8 weeks leaving me as sole income and care for her two children. I requested access to pursue company resources available for such an event, and instead my job was threatened for taking my vacation in emergency circumstances while she was in the hospital citing attendance issues, and was given an ultimatum and an impossible task.


Upon returning to the state of michigan I found employment in three days in Hungry Howies management program, but after two months was asked by my Ex to return until the ending of the lease, and was morally and financially obligated to do so. I had a string of jobs for several months each, but did not pursue better opportunities there because I was planning on returning home to Howell.

Over time it became apparent my Ex partner was still not in a healthy state of mind, and she ended up getting us both evicted on September 20th. I included this to try to explain the gap in employment instead of listing 5 places I worked at temporarily in the last year.


Matthew Norman is a long time friend and recommended I apply for this position citing my previously being fork lift certified as a fit, as I was certified on all lift equipment at home depot from 06-08 during my employment there.

If hired I believe I will be a beneficial resource to the company with my work ethic and positive professional attitude, thank you for your consideration.
