I can't say the business name because I know we have employees that are members of this board, and it would be against company policy to have them directly talking to me. I got started after I spent a few years in the Marines, and using that plus GI bill I went to college, worked hard, actually paid attention to what they were teaching, not just enough to pass the tests and then proved myself on my own and caught some employers attention. Now I am 29 and make good money.
