A Storm Is Coming

Went from a musician in a band to retail while in college. Got bored with school and got married (at 19), went into making IV fluids for a company and started working electrical PT just to pick up extra money and learn something.

Someone convinced me to get in the newspaper business and the job didn't "exactly" require a college degree, so... 28+ years later and I manage a region for a national newspaper. I just fell into something I love...managing and leading people. Funny thing is, no degree but I teach college grads how to write business letters. Go figure!

Anyone want management advice, give me a yell.

P.S. Still married 30.5 years later - and to the same woman.
