Summary

I like to work. I am faithful to the company where I work. I don't just do exclusive work, unless that's the norm. I am proactive and I like to support the company in which I work, in the position that is needed, when it is needed. You can count on me that I will do a job that tends to excellence. And when you need me to provide my services in another area of the company at a certain time, I will also support you there and do my best work.
When driving, I plan my routes but I have no problem changing them when the situation requires it. Obviously as long as my supervisor is aware and agrees to it.

I can do certain repairs to the truck by myself. That would save you money. Both you and I are interested in the company not stopping, working and producing.
