Telephone Service Tech for Verizon. I install and repair copper and Fios (fiber optic) lines. Teach part time at our fire training center. Nothing like smelling like smoke and have snot run down your nose.

Welcome to FTE. If you want to join our local chapter, there is a link in the bottom of my signature. It does not cost a cent, and we are planning some events for the year- in fact, drive over the hill to the Starbucks in Rowland Heights next Sunday @ 10. We would love to have you.

Air Force Recruiting Supervisor...till 99 then I retired. Then I went to work for a couple of staffing agencies...technial and nurse staffing....been a logistics analyst for the past 7 years with a big IT company doing mostly DoD work. That pays the bills!

Then there's the FTE, Red Cross, the Lions Club International, the Ruritan, Community Collaboration Faciltator, Police Civil Service Board Member, County Republican Executive Committee Chairman, State Republican County Caucus Chairman, the list just goes on and on and on......

LOL! Joe

Thanks but NO...not NO...but HELL NO!!! I just got back from a meeting with the Army Corps of Engineers, the State Parks Dept, the State Dept of Nat'l Resources, the Dept of Fish & Wildlife....all because some of the local boatowners want to do some dredging work at the local lake....on our own dime. Yet we still have to jump through all of the regualtory hoops just like somebody was paying to do the job.

My last 4 hairs are in danger after today's meeting!

I'm a Fire Controlman 1'st Class in the United States Navy. Been in for 10 years, currently responsible for small arms and Anti-Terrorism/ Force Protection training. It's not a high paying job but I'll put it this way, if I joined the Border Patrol I would be making less money. lol

Hey Willie. Welcome to FTE! If you want to join the SoCal/Hawai'i Chapter just click on the link in my signature (it's free) and that will take you to the sign up page. We are having a meeting the 9th of March at Don Jose's in Buena Park to discuss some of our upcoming events and a possible Build project.

FTE is a good resource with a lot of sharp tech people that are more than willing to help. Welcome aboard. Steve
