| | | after dropping out of college in 1992, I drifted into automotive tech school... made me not want to be a mechanic. Holy shit... I worked as an injection molding tech (fancy name for brainless manufacturing drone), went on to work as buffing tech (lol), electronic assembler, extrusion molding tech, telecom installer, worked at a DOL Job Corps center as a driver, worked in Tennessee in an automotive interior systems plant, moved on to working for an outdoor power equipment company as a tech support rep, worked back at that same Job Corps center as a residential advisor, driver and then security, went to work at an autoparts store and then got hired at International Paper in Ticonderoga, NY where I worked for about 11 years and retired. I worked all over that fucking mill... machine room, pulp mill, recausting plant, warehouse, and finishing room. I retired in 2016.

| | | Rocky Rococo, Burger King, high school drop out, Taco Bell (quit after 4 hours), gas station and Burger King(again), rock "star", back to high school, Power Generation Equipment Repair (52D) US ARMY, pet store, hardware store (small engine shop), college certification for HI/LO pressure boilers/HVAC, building engineer for a Catholic girls high school/convent/day care, building tech for the Cousin's Center (Archdiocese of SE Wisconsin), brainless assembly line drone building generators, equipment builder/field service tech for a dairy equip manufacturer. Life had been shit - tired of busting my ass and making dirt. Wised up, went to night school while working full time PLUS part time weekends, rec'd BA in Electronics Engineering in 3yrs. Maintenance mechanic for a wet wipe/liquid filling company, Engineer for a wet wipe/liquid filling company (competitor of prior), Electrical Engineer for a blow molding equip manufacturer, Engineer for a wet wipe/liquid filling company (back to the former), for the last 9yrs I have been an engineer for a global industrial controls company. I am currently a Sr. Project Engineer working in R&D with servo motors, drives, and controllers (PLCs). After being a job whore all the way into my late 30's, I am finally at a job/company where I am no longer actively seeking other employment. I will retire here. It took a LONG time but long hours at shitty jobs, sleepless nights, and strong mental focus on a goal turned living on the shit side of town with the cockroaches and riding the bus, to a house, car(s), and lots of gas and/or electric hungry toys. It would make me so angry when I would bitch to my old man about how hard life is, and he had no sympathy. All he would ever say is "what are you doing to change that?". Turned out his question was the answer, and the only holding me back was ME.

| | | So many things. Food service at an amusement park, horse stall cleaner to get free lessons/time with the horses,started college and withdrew, coffee, more coffee, coffee again (kept getting poached for making good foam), started college again. Dog kennel manager, bird minder (lasted 3 hours), materials hauling office assistant/dispatcher/accident photo taker, finished the degree finally, direct commissioned sales (worst one on the whole list thus far and the only one that demanded I have a degree), temp benefits admin, temp receptionist turned into executive assistant turned into admin supervisor turned into current job managing a medical clinic for an organization I actually like and support. Easy is a fairytale.

| | | I've worked in a catering service, with a landscaping company, as a videographer/photographer, as a sports writer, as a Resident Advisor, as a clothing brand representative, as a carpenter, as a model, and my personal favorite, as a ranch hand on a rodeo farm. I'm in college to be a doctor, but I still work four of those jobs year round and pick up one or two more for the summer.
