lol I am an aeronautical engineer that joined the US Army Military Police Corps. I picked it because there was no calculus required. After 9 years of that they decided I should do Operations Research and sent me to KSU to get another masters. Had I known it was basically an applied mathematics degree I would have ran as fast as my legs could carry me.

I am currently semi-retired. I have worked as an auto service technician, machinist, carpenter, and teacher. I taught welding, auto repair, machine shop and drafting for 15 years. Then I became a curriculum specialist for a public college in Illinois for 2 years and then for the State Department of Education. I retired as a contract administrator in an innovative program division for the State Board of Education at the age of 56 and currently work part-time at a private four year college as a career counselor. In my off time, I fish and relax!
