Wal-Mart
. At Wal-Mart, I was the support manager that implemented, trained and
developed the receiving area and the unloading and loading of trucks.
I coordinated a staff of 45 plus employees. My direction going forward
was to have the trucks unloaded overnight and drive the associates to
have the shelves stocked and areas zoned before 7am the next morning.
I also had the duties of evaluations and coaching.
. It was here that I learned how to really fine tune my organizational
skills and communication skills, because we have the biggest store in
the southeast. My interaction with customers has made me the human
being I am today. I have learned that to be in customer service you
have to have a servant's heart.

company that removed rocks for the purpose of utilities, and roadways.
I developed into a proficient driller and blaster and worked my way up
to become the explosives manager of the dynamite, and explosive

Homeland security and with the ATF. I produced accurate counts for
each of these organizations when they came to do surprise inspections
and they found that all of my records and books were in order.
. I was of great value to this organization and was considered
irreplaceable. However the job market fell out in construction and the
owner was forced to lay us all off.
. I believe that the organizational skills and record keeping techniques
that I obtained will greatly benefit me as I pursue my career goals.
