Work Experience
Maintenance Technician
Quikrete - Birmingham, AL
June 2022 to Present
Well honestly it's like a cement plant and there has been a lot of neglect so I have been reworking bag houses, installing vibrators on Sand tanks, installing seals on auger covers, ordering company tools that my boss man stole when he quit, organizing the parts room and maintenance area. Helping run production to learn the plant.
Changing gear boxes and electrical motors.
Installing new disconnects because they are full of concrete and will not open or covered in concrete and will not open.
Well they say a picture is worth a thousand words you would just have to see it to believe it. Millwright/Maintenance/mechanic/electrician
