I am a fast learner and will most likely be up to speed in my new position more quickly than most. I have excellent verbal and written communication skills, and strong interpersonal skills. I am always a team player and work well as a team member, but excel when working independently. I am familiar and comfortable with Microsoft Windows and Office. I am experienced with the internet using both Windows Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. I am a conscientious, reliable worker. I will be at work every day assigned, on time, ready to work. I do not spend my at work time with my head down absorbed in my phone, I pay attention to the job I am hired to do. I rarely get sick and do not lay out of work. I am very familiar with GPS navigation as well as conventional maps.
