@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).

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!

Our limes and oranges are being harvested right now at the house in Leon to be taken to the hotel on the beach. Our house supplies the citrus fruits for the restaurant.
