Work Experience
Amazon Delivery Driver
Commitment Logistics LLC - May 1, 2023 I deliver 150+ packages every shift working for Commitment. The shifts are around 10-11 hours daily and the job requires a lot of personal planning and safe driving habits. Within the delivery vehicles, there is a Netradyne camera system that detects our every move to monitor safety. Within my 3 years working with this company, I have only received 1 safety violation which proves my personal value to safety. This view on safety directly translates to the cockpit of an airplane.
