Ten Trac
The summer after my sophomore year of high-school, I was hired for my first job as a manual laborer for a Company called “Ten Trac” based out of Souderton, Pennsylvania. What the company does is resurface and repaint tennis courts, basketball courts, playgrounds, etc. I worked there each summer from 2009-2012, and then part time in the 2013 summer. I believe this job is what helped me develop a strong work ethic, as there were many hot summer days were you just had to push yourself and not give up.
Some of the duties I carried out, and details about my time working this job were:
- Provided re-surfacing and painting services for old commercial and residential driveways and tennis courts
- Started as a painters assistant, promoted to painter within 2 summers because of good attendance and work-ethic
- Trained three workers on basic jobs including crack filling, cleaning surfaces, and line painting
