The bulk of my work experience lies in truck parts sales. Prior to my years at the Kenworth dealer where I currently work, I earned my wages mainly as a laborer in many fields, including retail, sales, warehouses, and construction. I have no degrees or special licensing, but I've operated heavy machinery (scrapers, water-haulers, loaders, backhoes, and cranes). I work well with people, and just as well by myself. Having such varied work experience has put me in many situations and scenarios I'd found challenging, and I've found I'm able to handle tremendous stress and even harsh conditions. I haven't been in a management or leadership position in well over a decade, but I was always able to handle a job smoothly and in good spirits. I believe any position one finds themselves in, it is important to keep your crew happy and focused on the task(s) at hand. It's a role that everyone takes part in, and very much part of any job.
