    Presently: Customer Service Manager for an industrial plastics company (20+ Years, but not all in that position)
    Previously: Customer Service, File Manager, Fotohut clerk (anyone remember them?), small deli/grocery cashier, building supply store cashier, seafood market supervisor (these are not in order, just as they come to me)...I think that's it!

    Funny, I asked this same question to the PT group that gathered at my house this summer; I want to see if Puckstop signs on with the same answer he gave there!

    Current:
    IT Professional - Technical Support Analyst for the past 23 years

    Past jobs:
    Office assistant at an Advertising Agency for 4 years

    Various office jobs before that.
    Have been working since High School Grad - 1970 which, I'm sure, is way before most of you were born.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    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
