I am flexible, reliable and task oriented, but I need a certain degree of flexibility in my schedule, as I am taking care of my disabled wife (doctor’s appointments, prescription pick ups) and daughter (aggravated pulmonary issues during allergy season). I have my own car and some tools, plus a small workshop in the Woodlands. I never committed a crime and have a clean record in every country I lived. I do not drink or do drugs and have zero tolerance for such behaviour at work. Since my work history is rather limited in the United States, I can only provide limited references, and I’m willing to provide contact information for a couple of my clients, at your request.
Thank you for your time, Have a pleasant day.
