Breakfast with @CCWTech
Then we are going over to check out the new restaurant facility that we got last night. It's only a lease for this one, but we are opening as fast as we can move in tables!!
That is diversifying your portfolio for certain...
Just a bit!

@scotth I started off on this crazy journey as an electronics tech, spent everyday using a cro of some description.
i can remember one time, i really wanted to work in the r&d area of this company where I worked, they were looking for a junior tech/engineer & I really wanted the position.
I got the spot and I still remember day 1. They sat a huge Techtronix cro on my bench, this thing had more buttons and knobs that anything. I reckon it took me 10 minutes to find the on/off switch.
It is so 'Star Trek'. I can imagine how intimidating it would have been. The more switches and buttons, the better.
I was extremely fortunate in my young life to be hired as a corporate flight attendant. I was cabin crew on an executive airliner -- BAC 1-11 401AK.
I was permitted to help with maintenance, preflight, attend training. The boys would teach me how the systems worked on the airplane. And yes, I have sat in the right seat during flight.
I quit college and landed this job through sheer luck. Although college would have benefitted me orders of magnitude more than this job.
I can honestly say that I don't regret the opportunity. I was 19 and would sit in the jump seat during any/all operations of flight. I lost that job when I was 27. An entirely other lifetime ago. Dare I say that I'm 62 now?
Major geek moments!
Awesome stories! But... Maybe I should get off your lawn now?
Hahahahaha. No stay there, I'll bring the mower over & you can be useful.

As long as it's one of them new fandangled ones with the batteries. Me and the mechanic ones just don't get along. (Read: I get tired of yanking the chain to get it to start).
