Started working and cleaning parts in gasoline at 12 years old for my dad who was rebuilding motors for extra money.By 14 I rebuilt my first motor by myself.(a 40hp VW motor). Worked at El taco for 1.00 an hour,a drive-in theater,and circle K all at 16 years. I have laid block for 15 years in Arizona,laid sewer pipe,"live and inactive". As I got older I realized it is time to get a job with benefits.

Started working on the ramp loading bags on aircraft while going to school for my A&P license. After 2 years started as a mechanic and am now an inspector for southwest airlines.

Will retire in 10 years.
