-
I started at Miller I was a pipe fitter.
-
I switched piper about a year and a half
into the Miller.
-
I became Foreman and then
I was an Operator Foreman from there.
-
Before I came to Miller,
I was a laborer for three years
-
and then I actually became
a pipe fitter at another company.
-
I've bought a house,
-
new cars; just a lot more financially stable
than I was before.
-
Not always paycheck to paycheck.
Moving up was huge for me.
-
There's a lot that I like about Miller.
-
Versus other contractors,
I think Miller looks better than anyone else.
-
Our safety department, our OQ Department,
our Fleet Managers, our guys that we have
-
everything is just I think it's a notch
above the rest, so Miller is great.
-
I mean, they offer a lot more stuff too;
you get bonuses, they have the company picnics,
-
they have Employee Care Funds, they have
scholarships, there's a lot to take advantage here
-
that other contractors don't offer.
-
Miller changed me, I mean it's a lot more stressful now,
in the I'm position that I'm in.
-
I've had a lot more things I have to do,
a lot more people have to worry about, safety, you know,
-
but it's all changing for the better,
it's making me who I want to be,
-
I've always wanted to be a foreman
so I'm really happy for the opportunity.
-
I kind of motivate myself.
My parents are really hard workers.
-
I've kind of, I think I just have that in me,
being a hard worker.
-
And, you know, when I was a pipe fitter
I always wanted to –even a laborer–
-
I always wanted to be a foreman.
I always looked at my boss and said,
-
"I want to do that, I wanna be an operator".
So I've always said that so now
-
that I'm an Operator Foreman I want to be
a General Foreman, I want to be a Super Tenant.
-
So I'm just always looking at me going forward
and I always, you know, want to take it one more step.
-
I think Miller is –from a company standpoint–
everyone looking at Miller
-
we look better than other contractors,
so I think Miller is here to stay
-
and it's gonna be the next best thing,
so I want to be a part of the next best thing.
