JEFF´s experience, maturity and leadership is priceless at any given time when called upon to handle any job in the field. JEFF works hard and smart as any 18 year old cowboy in the country, that´s a fact. JEFF is my Captain America and a HULK at that! Thank you JEFF. GOD bless you my friend.

    Erin, when drawing up meds via needle, pull the plunger on the syringe back and fill it with air. Then insert the needle into the med bottle, push the air in and the pressure it creates, causes the med to fill the syringe without muscles.
