Summary

In my role as night time yard hostler, I have used my downtime to learn and assist in all areas of the warehouse as needed. I anticipated issues before they'd arise and I'd do everything possible to maintain a steady flow of inbound and outbound materials. I've submitted Take Charges for safety issues and/or conferred with leads when I noticed unsafe practices or to improve protocols.
