    Spent time doing many different things, most of which I liked, but not enough to devote "full time" too, or pay and/or work load was too low to stay. While doing those things, I spent about 15yrs in the automotive/truck parts industry. Prior to that I was in the NAVY and before that... family owned business.

    worked on the dock since high school. worked in recieving at Mejiers in troy ohio. then drove a fork lift for almost 3 years for the only injection mold department that Evenflo has in the U.S. so if you have kids, and you have anything at all made from evenflo from the dates of april 2005, and january 2008, i probably loaded it onto a truck

    and now im a student at truck driving school. and we start the fun stuff monday
