I've been working since I was 16 and I've only worked at 3 places. My first job was at a small business that manufactured military airplane parts (Airpro Corp.). Then I worked for Miami-Dade County Public Schools. Of course now I'm at FRC.
P.S: I still keep in touch with my ex-bosses. Kinda weird? Maybe.
Joni - Hey thanks for stopping by! Thats what I did for State Farm - rotary phone dialing for their telemarketing. Those were the days, eh, Joni? :)
Melanie - Hi friend!! You worked at the athletic club??? That's so cool. Do you remember Rocky Rococo's?? I love going down memory lane w/ ya!
