Describe a situation in your past where you showed initiative?

Answer It was 1987, my foreman had become sick and the company that I worked for needed someone to run the paint line process. I had the experience, they new it and they decided to give me a try at running this paint line process. The company had taken a contract to paint doors for all of General Motors Busses not only in Canada but some in the States as well. To be honest I didn't know if I was ready to handle such a large contract with such responsibilies, but I thought to myself, if I don't try then I won't know if I can do the job or not. We didn't have to do the finishing paint as different cities have different colors for their busses, doors included but we had to prime the pieces, wrap them in a special type of paper, put the pieces in a box and move them to the shipping department. There were six of us to do this big job, plus all of the other jobs that the company had contracts to do. I called the men in for a meeting and advised them that for the next 6 months we'd be working a ton of overtime and if there was someone in our group who couldn't work that overtime, they should tell me now. No one had any problems with working nearly 70 hours a week. Six and a half months went by before we finished that contract. I was given a fat raise for my efforts to not only finish that contract, but my efforts to plan my day's of work, and keeping the other guys happy as well. What I learned from that experience was, never doubt your own abilitiies, take a chance, you never know where it will take you.
