I started working at 11 in a grocery store as a bag boy and part-time in the butcher shop. That was in 1951. I had already put my work history down earlier starting with the Navy. I worked for 52 years continuous without a break other than vacations and sick leave.

I am a stay at home mom and I make jewelry and sell it online

previous jobs? I've had many based on where I lived.

My BEST job ever otehr than mom...

I did singing telegrams

I also worked at petsmart, was a busser at a bar, burger king, tim hortons, winners, office administrator, collection agent, tech support agent, photo lab employee... which was REALLY neat actually. and some others OH and worked in a bead store

singing telegrams is by FAR the most unique and intersting.

my most rewarding is being a stay at home mom wouldn't change it for ANYTHING. also the bead shop job taught me to make jewelry which I am making a very decent living at while being a stay at home mom.

Wow Maggie.... Thanks for the pressure. LOL I am cursed with saying whatever comes to mind.

So here goes.


First, I am Hannah's Father. After that I am a "high tech redneck". I am part owner of a technology services company. We do general IT work for small business clients. The IT Department for companies to small to have their own.


Before this I was a Windows Server admin for the PA State Medicaid System. (Thus my 'love' for all things government health care.) I have also cooked in all manner of restaurants. From Perkins to fancy gourmet places. I also served in the US Army for 12 Years. 4 active years on my original stint. 8 in the Guard, one of them active for a deployment to Bosnia. Some people say they learned everything they needed to know in Kindergarten. I learned everything I needed to know in the Army.

There is 5 years of post-secondary education in there as well. All in history. Dunno what for.... Never used it to make money, just to win at Trivial Pursuit and to win debates.

My favorite job, by far, is being Hannah's Daddy.

How'd I do Maggie? LOL
