- Responsibilities: list of many duties (the long paragraph). We need to turn into - items. The responsibilities are a long sentence with many items separated by periods? Actually it's a paragraph with many clauses separated by spaces? We need to split into list items. We'll extract each duty as separate
- . We'll need to parse the responsibilities block.

We need to split into sensible list items. Probably each sentence ends with a period. We'll split by periods and treat each as an item, but some sentences have no period? There are some missing periods. We'll approximate.
Better to create list items by splitting on periods and trimming.
Let's manually create list items:

That seems okay.
Now Knowledge, Skills And Abilities section: list of abilities.
We'll extract each bullet separated by line breaks? The text:
"Ability to work well with others as part of a team, meet the public, and work under stressful situationsMust be GSC qualifiedMust comply with DOT drug and alcohol testing programAbility to read documents, follow instructions, learn and understand ramp operations procedures, rules and regulationsAbility to type and/or use a computer keyboard with sufficient speed to meet demands of the jobMust successfully complete Operations Agent training program with a 90% or greater average and evaluation / probationary periodMust be aware of hazardous situations and be able to handle emergencies as neededAble to work under pressure and handle many functions at once with many different offices and/or groups of peopleMust work under tight time constraints to accomplish quick turns of aircraftMust possess good written and oral skillsMust present a well-groomed appearance in accordance with the Ground Operations Employee Handbook and Labor AgreementMust be able to effectively communicate verbally by telephone, face to face and public address systemsMust be able to be alert to moving vehicles or aircraft and use radio equipmentMust be able to communicate information and instructions verbally or via radio equipment"
We need to split into list items. We'll separate by capital letters? We'll just create items:
- Ability to work well with others as part of a team, meet the public, and work under stressful situations
- Must be GSC qualified
- Must comply with D
