Welcome To Topix Too Forum

I am retired now. In my life I have had maybe 15-20 different jobs in a wide variety of trades. My last 3 jobs spanning 20 years were all related... working with the State Medicaid program and Social Services. I loved it because I was helping people, which made it more of a meaningful mission in life rather than work. Prior to that I worked 17 years for a power company in which 12 years I was a meter reader and then promoted to night dispatcher for 5 years. Prior to that I worked 7 years in the timber industry working as a log skaler and timber cruiser out in the woods buying timber for a large saw mill. My most favorite job I ever had was back in early 70's when I was hitchiking through Florida. I made a stop in the Keys to take work for 4 months working on a garbage truck. I rode on the back bumper and travelled through all the Keys everyday picking up garbage... this enabled me to enjoy all the great views of the ocean from Key West to the mainland every day! They actually paid me to have a great time taking in the sights!
