Always liked things electronic in HS. Spent ~5 yrs in USN-R. Started work at TRW (now NGC) as a technician. Attended JC, got 2 AA's, transferred to SDSU for EE but crashed and burned early part of senior year.

The only thing I would suggest is to do choose something you love as your career and then its all good after that.
If I had a chance to go it all over I would have liked to had better grades in high school and then attended university like many of my friends but I have no regrets with the way my career has gone....... |
Well put JD. I'll second those sentiments as well. Still working at NGC as Mfg Engineer. Planning on retiring some day, but still like what I do on a daily basis. On days when I don't, well that's what TFC, DoD, and NS are for......... ![](images/smiles/icon_cool.gif) _________________ Your suffering will be legendary, even in hell.

I've done a lot of this and that growing up but finally found a career as an electrician. I am one of the few that love what I do. I am always learning something new on the job which makes it really interesting. My latest projects include a hospital, power/generating plant, and currently at the new casino/resort going up on the Las Vegas Strip ![](images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif) _________________

I too love what I do. Working for our country in developing its defense is the challenge that I had been waiting for a long time. _________________
