School. Meh.
I was a complete slacker after high school. I just wanted to surf/skate so I lived at the beach for a while. No real residency, just kind of crashed where I could. My dreads were less of a statement of style, than the consequence of salt water not getting washed out of my hair frequently. Good times.
Came home, did a few different random jobs for a while, then fell into a factory position. Operated machinery, then they offered me a mechanic position, became lead mechanic, then they offered me to help the electrical engineer build control panels, then offered me the apprenticeship, and now I'm the head of the electrical department. Pretty cool, I suppose. I make them do most of the grungy work, while I design control panels and write programs.
I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up. I'm 38.
Next time you buy a pack of "curiously strong mints", think of me. I programmed the machines that make those tins. Quite a few other brands I'm not allowed to speak of as well.
I thought I would be a photographer or musician when I grew up. My slacker lifestyle didn't exactly pan out. Life's pretty good though... my chick really digs me, and I have the coolest little 4yr old dude in the world
Plus... I still surf, skate, and skim whenever I can.
I have no idea why I just posted all that personal information, but there you go :what:
