    I kept the lights on as an IBEW Lineman for 35+ years. Now I'm just a pensioner.

    My hats off to you. I talk to the Linemen at the co-op i dispatch for. That is one dangerous job.

    Wow-Lots of interesting folks on the board. Me, not so much. When I'm not doing black ops for the CIA, I am a photographer for Playboy.

    My name is Marc. My first job was at the local grocery store. I had that job into college, until I found that college was not the place for me at that time. I then worked in a few automotive factories and worked my way up to foreman. The economy turned sour and then worked some local factory jobs, silicone molding and poly silicon processing. I had to have surgery and decided it was time for a change. I am currently finishing my first year as a radiography student and could not be happier. One more year to go and I will be an x-Ray tech.
