Cory Land

Started in 2016 as a custodian, not long after I switched to groundskeeping. As groundskeeper I maintained all of the School District's equipment such as trucks, tractors, mowers, trailers, small engines. I would also assist the bus mechanic from time to time as needed with other repairs on the District's various vehicles. In the winter months, I would do snow removal using snowplows, sweepers, or tractors/front end loaders. When not doing snow removal I would help out with facilities maintenance. After 3 years I was switched to full time facilities maintenance where I have been for the last 5 years. As a maintenance tech I've been responsible for all types of maintenance for all of the School District's facilities. Maintenance duties involved HVAC, Plumbing, electrical, carpentry, roofing, welding, routine maintenance, and a variety of other types of repairs. Im very accustomed to working with others, dealing with other people in other departments and finding ways to meet their needs within certain deadlines.

Applied hydrographic designs to various types of items, as well as Cerakote firearms coatings. Required a strong knowledge of automotive painting, prep work as well as some body work. I worked on various projects from small items such as cellphone cases to items as large as custom paint jobs on motorcycles, and up to a full sized top fuel dragster.

All types of mechanic work. Engine/ transmission repair, electrical, fuel systems, brakes, alignment, tires, general repairs. I performed any repairs on any vehicles taken in on trade or purchased through auctions ECT. Im also able to do paint and bodywork which allowed me to fix or rebuild many wrecked and/or salvaged vehicles.

Ensured trucks were within legal weight and size limits. Ensured that all vehicles had the appropriate permits and paperwork. Certified as a truck inspector and did various random inspections at the port of entry. Was responsible for writing citations for legal issues and/or placing vehicles out of service for safety violations.
