Strive to keep work up to standards and meet requirements
Aim to keep work completion tidy and consistent without mistakes
I work carefully and make sure to follow safety standards and procedures
I’m calm and uneasily aggravated, able to keep my cool in stressful situations
Willing to learn and take advice from others, also glad to help colleagues
Know how to use hand tools and not a novice to manual labour
