Summary
While working on the docks for the past two years I have learned many different skills that have helped me become more versatile on and around water. I learned the importance of customer satisfaction and how to situate problems quickly and efficiently.
While working at TradeHome I learned the skill of sales and began to climb in the number of sales I put out. I learned how to step into the customers shoes and really try and feel what they need.
