Dear Sir(s),
I am very interested in this position. One reason that will make me an excellent National Operations Director is that from High School thru College, my Summers were spent working with moving HHG. I could handle jobs with a crew of two and conduct moves from Philadelphia to Ft. Dix and vice versa. I currently work at a Port Company in Harrison, NJ. as a Safety Director. I would view this job as a step up in my career. At my current position, I am well liked by the drivers because I'm hands on and can still show them how to conduct a truck inspection, logs and how to check your brakes and lamps. I don't mind getting dirty.
Thank you for your consideration...
Peter K. Bethune
