I am seeking employment with your company. I am a hardworking family man, reliable, and honest, and I learn and train quickly. I love a challenge, and my work history is broad, and although primarily in driving and delivering with all sorts of trucks, flatbed, van, refer, dump truck, propane, loading, unloading, driver/delivery positions. I am flexible, and as you can see from my experience, I have been successful at many jobs and have varied experience with many vehicles. I was a truck driver (class A) in Europe for most of my life, upon immigrating here to the US, I had to climb my way back to my class A which I now have. Give me a chance, and you won’t be sorry. I am a natural born truck driver.

A few highlights of my work history are as follows: I was a London bus driver in the busy city and boroughs of London. I also worked for many years driving all sorts of large vehicles (trucks and buses) and delivering all sorts of dry goods and equipment to various clients. I also worked extensively in warehouse environments using pallet jacks, cherry pickers, forklifts and hand held devices. I am experienced in making deliveries to numerous customers on a routine basis, making up to as many as a dozen stops a day. I also maintained manifests, collected monies from clients, and maintained an orderly warehouse.

Part time work consisted of working in security, and possess a Tennessee state security license, and also have experience in the hospitality industry as a steward, front door person, and porter at prestigious hotels. I have an even broader experience from agencies I worked for in the UK, whereas I was sent to contract jobs in various towns. I have references from most of them who employed me upon your request. I am however a trucker for most of my life. I’ve been at the dump trucking job for nearly two years and I am ready to move on, because I miss my tractor trailers, and I also want a job whereas I can work during all weather. Often in dump trucking, when there is rain, there is no work, and that’s not what I want.
