  Received my State of Oklahoma Mining Commission Surface Supervisor Certificate, new training card and First Aid Card.​Operated a variety of Heavy Equipment, Dozer, Track hoe, Grader, Loaders, Crane, Box Blade, and Skid Steer. I also performed daily/monthly preventative maintenance on all these machines. Started out the day by greasing a checking out the equipment I am about to operate (greasing equipment, fueling, checking fluid levels a make sure equipment is functioning properly before using). Dig/push layers of soil and sand off surface for customers. Made sure roads are in proper condition to drive on and brumes are at proper height around lake a river.
