I was in the Air Force for about 9 years, got out, and am now the head network admin in a medium sized international company. Not bad having climate control now, and surfing the web all day

Wow Mike you are the Jack of all trades, Im sure a few memebers here can vouch for what they have seen in person that your Wall light kits you are making are comming out beautifully, Nice work !!!

Thanks for your kind words, I just never decided what I wanted to do when I grow up, so I did neither.
I am sorry you detest your job, have you considered getting some training and maybe a career change, it takes serious stones but is worth it. You might even get your current employer to pay for some training.

I started out as a security guard, then repo man, then salesman. Now I run a used car lot with 200+ cars in inventory. I have 13.5 years in, all with the same company. My wife works for the state of NJ.

I'm a retired Detroit cop who did 27 years in the trenches. After "retirement" I was hired as the district Technology Coordinator for a large Downriver Detroit public schools district. I've been doing this for the past 11 years. Someday I may really retire, but I'm having too much fun now.

1985-88 Press brake operator at a company that made custom commercial kitchen equipment. Chi Chi's was one of the accounts

1989 Press brake operator at a company that made fire engines and other custom vehicles

Actually, you just sit and look out the window as the world goes by.

Or you can look at it as a video game, without a reset button!

I'm a graphic designer for a human and civil rights organization in Detroit—Focus: HOPE. Started out studying at Michigan State and was in their fisheries and wildlife program...discovered it wasn't fer me and am still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up. Also worked at a golf course as a greensman and at a Kmart Distribution center in the casepack department and drove a forklift.
