As Peter eloquently puts it, "Hardworking - Someone who is 'hardworking' is someone that works with a purpose.

Peter highlights a perfect example of this spirit with when describing a complex project that required the concerted effort of multiple departments. He recalls, "The job would not have been possible without hard work and collaboration with multiple departments. Processing worked tirelessly with the shop to process parts, fit and weld a massive amount of complex embeds and were successful in hitting due dates for each load."This project showcased the seamless integration of planning, organization, and hard work, ultimately leading to its successful completion.
