[QUOTE="Jaybird, post: 134064, member: 22283"] Besides the obvious answer.....:) I enjoy music (pickin guitar) and golf (bogey at best). My passion is my job. I love what I'm doing and find myself totally forgetting how much time I spend doing it. Back in the early 80's I was working for a good sized company. The very first job that I was placed in charge of, (3800ft. conveyor system at Catarpillar, Aurora, Ill.) there was a major snag towords the end of the project. I was hit with a brainstorm and designed a device that actually fixed the problem we had. To me it was a simple thing to do, and I did the prototype drawing on a concrete floor with a piece of soapstone. Anyway...this item was a success and it got my first big job out of the hole(53 of 'em still at Cat), and these units are now used all over the US and other countries. Problem was, I was working for another, so I didn't get the rights to the device. Well that was the spark I needed to decide that one day, I would start my own business. I made the leap in '92 and have had my own conveyor business since then. I'm passionate about my trade, and I love dealing with machinery and technology. I'm also passionate about the difference in the paychecks! :D [/QUOTE]
