Overall, I am a family man, and I will do what I need to do for my family. I've did manual labor jobs my entire life, so working outdoors in any climate extreme is no issue for me. My son and I are both active while playing basketball, hiking, and taking up submission wrestling and kickboxing. I just want to be able to have a job to that could help me and my family benefit as a whole.
