This past week, Account Manager Elyse Vautrin completed a ride along with Mark Miles from the PrimeSource Account in Rochester, NY. Mark has been with JB Hunt since February 2017 where he started his career with the PPG Global Account. Though it was a brisk day in Rochester, it was great spending time with Mark and learning more about him and his family.
Below is the write-up from Elyse:
It was a true pleasure riding along
with Mark. His dedication and genuine concern for the account, customers, and
other drivers shines through in all he does. Mark was more than willing to show
me how to properly strap a load on a curtain-side trailer and was eager to
assist when I had difficulty. He took his time to ensure I fully understood the
mechanics of each decision that was made when strapping and how best to strap
difficult sized product as to not destroy it. From the moment I met Mark I
could see his concern for doing the job properly and his concern to ensure he
was being as safe as possible. Mark truly cares about his position and strives
to ensure he is doing the best possible job each and every day. Mark has
assisted the Prime Source account with training in the past and expressed
interest in doing so in the future. Mark has been seen going out of his way to
assist other drivers in the yard with strapping their loads and is willing to
lend a hand with any tools he may have to ensure all drivers are able to leave
out on their run for the day. Mark came from PPG as a regional driver switching
to a local flatbed account to spend more time at home with his wife and son.
Mark enjoys the physicality of the job and views it as he is being “paid to go
to work out”. Mark has had some recent frustrations with the account especially
when it comes to maintenance of equipment and is excited to see what the future
will bring. Mark enjoys spending time with his family, being outdoors, and
going to eat at Texas Roadhouse. Mark is an asset to the Prime Source and the J.B.
Hunt team!
