The education question has lead me to this...

Worked in my grandfather's shop, Leis Motors, as a car detailer while in high school from 16 to 18. Quit and went to UMMorris for 3 years. While dating a girlfriend I got job working for her father as a t-shirt screen printer, which lasted 4 years. Within that time completed an Aerospace Engineering degree at UMTC. Continued my job with Comcast until September (1.5 years as a contractor). Got hired by AeroSim Technologies to debug C++ flight simulator code. Found out I couldn't debug C++ too well. Got Fired. Hired by WaveBroad Cable company of Port Angeles, WA. Quit do to ultra-poor management. Been unemployed for nearly 2 months, but I average a job interview per week. Hopefully will get hired at GoodRich Aerospace as a Simulations and Modeling Engineer (Matlab instead of C++, thank God).
