48 G.I. JOBS | FEBRUARY 2018 | GIJOBS.COM What do you do? I receive loads and do pre-checks of truck dispatch and the load. I'm the first impression the customer gets of McLane Company. Biggest transiāĻžon headache? I found it challenging to get a job while having a lot of skills/experience, but no college degree. Skills translation was a problem. Either employers would look past experience because there wasn't a college diploma, or they would rule me out because they felt my experience made me "over qualified." What military skills do you apply to your civilian job? Get the job done. Don't settle for second best. Build morale. What surprised you about the civilian workforce? Working with other veterans makes it a little more familiar. GARY GALLUP Driver, McLane Company SERGEANT FIRST CLASS Age: 51 Education: Just shy of associates Military Service: Sergeant First Class (E-7), Army (1984-2005) MOS: Motor Transport Operator (88M40) FOOD SERVICES
