    First real job - $2.00/hr - loading 90 lb bags of sand in a blasting hopper.
    Then about 5 years commercial painter.
    Then another 5 years fitting/welding offshore oil field platforms.

    The oil field went bust in the early 1980s and I found myself repairing coal barges on the Mississippi River.

    Completed a BS in Computer Science in 1990 and currently do database programming.

    After 17 years, I still haven't figured out corporate politics or the spin game.
    Shooting straight from the hip is not part of the culture.
    Don't you dare call a spade a spade - its more like a black upside down heart with a stemmy thing protruding from the bottom.

    Now I'm trying to figure out auto mechanics with the help of this forum.
