Summary

I would like to work in a place where my knowledge of the building trade can benefit myself and others. Your store is my favorite and I always enjoy coming here. I believe with my 21 years of customer service and dealing with the public it could benefit your store. I can read a tape measure and love hard work. I have never been someone who arrives late. I’m usually 30 minutes early if not earlier.
