I am a very willing and apt person and I consider learning new things a personal challenge. I am a very good teacher and I believe that teaching someone something new is the greatest gift that can be passed on between people. I never take work criticism personal; I appreciate it because I learn from it. I am always looking for ways to make the work that I do as efficient as possible. I don’t believe that any kind of job is beneath me. I believe that given the right amount of training and time that anyone can do pretty much anything if they have a positive outlook on the work that they do. I take good instruction and I action these instructions with vigilance and diligence. I give good instruction; communication in the workplace is one of my strongest attributes. I’ve made some great friends in my current workplace and I am looking forward to meeting more great people in my future endeavors.
Pros: Great Job Growth
Cons: Stability

Learned Parts Sales Specialist
Every Mondays I go the office and do reports for the previous week I worked and plan for another week ahead. I do follow ups on quotations and orders and customer quirries. I will also find out from my co-workers if they have any quotes or orders to follow up. 2 will also ask them their weekly planning. I have learned that things becomes so easy if you work together and pull things together. I enjoyed going to visit customers and make friendship with them. The selling becomes very easy because they always think about you when they want to buy. The most challenging aspect on the job is when the customer doesn't want to buy from you because maybe of the price or no stock that is very challenging. I always make sure that I always visit the customer so that he won't forget me.
Pros: National Sales Manager
Cons: Always work overtime when required by a cusomer

Staff morale
Passkonate people, good relationship with co-workers, honesty is the best policy even though its not always recognized, company is losing good people, people with vast knowledge of the industry are being victimized if they stand their ground as the company has a few people on a power trip. Overall though a great company apart from the few rotten apples, but not evrryone can be pleased. I am the goto person that most of yhe staff members come to as they know I am a problem solver
Pros: stay positive at all times
Cons: que sera sera

Experience and exposure with the company
I learned a lot on how to implement our osh act and regulations on working environment, but the problem is when the company provide a low budgets for safety and on other hand employees fail to adhere to the law. The other important part i how to eforce discipline and saf based behavior to all level's of management, as we all know that most of our employees on floor level not educated or informed, it's a challenge to civilize or diversify the circle , but I managed to educate and inform my staff about the importance of safety. I'm happy with my experience because no fatality has occurred until date. The other important thing i learned is to make sure that everyone within the company must know and understand that nothing is important or special more than life or people. People need to know they form a company together not a building or machine, meaning the most valuable assets of the company it people,
Pros: Life time opportunity
Cons: Smart operating
