Dear hiring agent, I have just recently moved to Michigan from Tennessee because my mother is aging and is sick so I've come back to Michigan to take care of her and to live here in Michigan PERMANENTLY.

Please view my skills and qualifications, I possess, Computer, Leadership, Organizational, Communication, Team Building, Trouble Shooting and most importantly Quality skill. I consider my self proactive instead of reactive and pride myself on 16 years of perfect attendance. While working at Unisia Steering Systems I received an award for 'Employee of the Year', over 3.5 million rack and pinion systems were received by Nissan our biggest customer with 0 PPM. This feet had never been achieved in the 15 years of the two companies doing business earning me a $1,000 bonus. Unfortunately I've been laid off 5 times in the last 10 years due to the recession so I'm looking for a company that appreciates me as much as I will appreciate them. Thank you for your time. Authorized to work in the US for any employer
