Gruver,TX

Summary

I was born and raised on a farm outside of Gruver, Texas. I continued the generational family farming operations while simultaneously supplementing my income with off farm jobs. My family recently decided to sell the farm and I subsequently lost my lifelong home in the process. I felt it was time for me to retire but now regret that impulsive decision and want to return to work. I have been an experienced and dependable general worker with a proven track record of efficiently completing tasks in various settings. Skilled in manual labor, equipment operation, maintaining a wi-fi driver's log and printer inside company truck cab. Consistently scored over 90% on performance driving as reported in monthly safety meetings and last quarter received a $3,000 safety bonus from C P Energy! Safety-conscious with a strong work ethic and the ability to adapt to different environments. Ready to contribute to a dynamic team and make a positive impact.
