Quite interesting. You were very specific as to dates and places. I don't think I could remember that much detail. You're to be congratulated for working all those years instead of going for the Disability earlier. Good for you for winning promotions. Great work. I'm glad others wrote about their careers. judi

Comment from Poetic Friend
You have had quite a diverse and an interesting career. Just reading your resume (so to speak), it seems as if you have taken pride in the jobs you've worked.
You actually began working at 16 years old. That's an accomplishment in itself.
Also, I read your profile, you have another major accomplishment -- married to the same woman for 30 years. Congratulations!
Thank you for sharing.

Wow, you've had a very exciting life, my friend!! It's nice that you've shared your experiences with us. It's a great way to sum up your greatest achievements! Good idea of Mastery to get us to talk about our lives.
Take care,

Comment from Ben Colder
My deepest respect for never giving into what some people call disabilities. I call them opportunities. You proved my point by working 30 years productively. Only a fool would not grant you the opportunity to now rest. Well done my friend, Blessings to you and the wife.

Thanks bro, the docs said i could have been on dis for all my life...so glad I wasn't but there were things should have been picked up and help gotten as you folks say...that could have made my working life a bit easier. Thanks a lot.
Comment from Barb Hensongispsaca
Wow very nicely done. I am proud that you did not use the system for disability. I too could but I cant just sit and do nothing. Loved the music teacher but didn't you do that all your life, too?

Exactly, Barb, as you have read elsewhere my dad left us when I was young but he was clever and resourceful and maybe I inherited some of that. I think I wold have gone nuts on Disability all my life. But they could have helped me with some things even so all those years.

Sankey,
A most illustrious career! Seems like a great deal of your time was spent in the music field, eh? A wonderful profession for a talented person! Thanks for sharing!
