I was a shovel and jack hammeroperator in a plumbers union (1st yr apprentice) for 8.25 an hour. Torn and herniated disc within a year sent me to a temp agency and a mail room job for a corporation... started at 10.00... sorting mail.

13 years later, and a lot of self taught accounting software ...

I now make 107/ hr writing financial reports for pipeline co.

GED...

Everyone has to start somewhere!
