- As a loader operator, my role was crucial in the logistics of timber handling. I operated the loader to load trucks with logs and lumber, ensuring that the trucks were organized to optimize transportation. In addition, I was also the Hand Leader of a team of three to four people in the operational process. My responsibilities also included organizing the timber yards and checking and preparing the operating site, ensuring that the ground was suitable and safe. With my self-knowledge in mechanics, I did not just operate; I actively participated in the maintenance of the machines. I assisted in maintenance tasks and performed simple maintenance such as replacing ruptured hoses, to ensure the efficiency and safety of the entire operation, from the base to the departure of the trucks, always closely monitoring the integrity of the equipment and leading my team to operational success.
