*************@*****.***
All the stuff in my resume that I vegally explained is just a spert of what I truly possess. I'm funny and spontaneous, driven by fire and excitement, honesty and pride which makes me self-driven to inspire the guy working next to me. I don't like to do things twice, only when it's a new day on a different job. I'm the type of worker who hates to set on the side-lines, I will be the one who jumps up first on the job and throws the first punch. At the end of each day everybody is happy and I'm the guy that you and other co-workers will want standing next to them after a hard day . I am what you would call a commodity with a big smile.

I did electrical, and landscaping, snow removal and mowing.

That's when I went to work for Hahn co ready mix.

Additional Information
I just finished the truck driving coarse at Iowa Central Community College on December 18 ' 2020. Top of my class, in the classroom and out in the truck.. It was a 11 week coarse. I've had a CDL A for a little over 8 yrs. I took the coarse to better equipped my mind and to become a all around better driver. I was the only student that got to do blindside parallel parking with a full length commercial vehicle. I did it three times in a row and nailed it 2 out of 3. Also, the reason for the gap in my employment between now and dec. 2019 is because I was suppose to be in the class before the one I was in but covid shut down school for a while and then put classes back for almost 2 months on top of that.
