“They help you get experience, and they also help you for after you’re here, with your career path. To be honest, I didn’t think I was going to be driving a Bobcat or doing any of that but they give us trainings. Since I’ve gotten here, I’ve gotten my OSHA training, forklift, confined space, and first aid certificates. Now I’m doing the excavator and working on the Bobcats. I’m learning a lot of new things. Six months ago I didn’t know anything about irrigation and now could lay out a whole piping system basically all by myself.”
