The new plan will be to do the upgrade on the other side. Also, Malcolm stated the part-time field employee was sent on his way, due to not acquiring his GED and therefore a Class D license could not be obtained. He continued by saying a new full-time employee was hired for the field at $10.00 an hour and will be expected to acquire his Class D license, with no increase given, due to the license being part of the job requirement.
