When we get a call, it can vary from a water meter, leak to a water main break to no leak at all.

My name is derek fisher. I work for water, soil streets and I'm a road service technician. My position helps others by being a first response.

I can let them know what's going on or if somebody's house is flooding or anything I'd be able to turn it off or if it's something major, I can get it to the right person right away, so they can get on top of it day to day I go in, get my paperwork and then, throughout the day I take various calls anything from tripping hazards to leak detections to water main breaks to meet the tops missions.

Anything you need, and I just respond to it and let them know where it needs to go or fix it. Myself.

What drew me to work for arlington county was the diversity and I always wanted to work somewhere, where I can help people for someone else looking to work here. I would encourage them to apply because the management and the people here are very good, and some groups are like family and we've known each other for very long talking. Joking and everything. So it's like an extended family reminds me that it's more than just the job.

You.
