Eileen's Story
Life
Married with three sons and still living in north county. Just can't seem to get away from this airport! Attending college classes off and on. Working on getting a degree that I should have done after I graduated from Berkeley! I work for First Data Resources at Riverport. I've been there since 1997 working as a mainframe programmer. Before that I worked for Venture Stores for 23 years (since my co-op days in 12th grade at Berkeley). When I'm not working or going to school, I love to spend time with my husband and sons and all of my sisters and their families.
School
I can't help but wonder how everyone is doing that I went to Holy Ghost with all those years. Going to school with the same group of kids for eight years, you have a lot of memories stored up. I have some very fond memories as well as some not so fond of a couple of those nuns that taught us! I can recall most of my teachers: Sister Gloria, Ms. Carol (one of the "bad" teachers for me), Sister Sharon, Sister Claudia, Siste...Expand for more
r Patricia, Sister Ann Marie, Mr. McFallan(sp?), and Mrs. Pennington. I attended the last mass at Holy Ghost several years ago and seen a few people from my past especially from my old neighborhood in Berkeley (lived on Garfield Avenue and 3rd Street).
Workplace
Loved working at Venture Stores and wished that they didn't end up closing!!! What a great group of people that I had the pleasure to work with, mentor with and drink with! Venture offered me opportunities with my career that I would have not gotten anywhere else. It will always hold dear to my heart (and all the people I knew along the way) and will always be the "best" place to work!
Currently, I am working at First Data, I really like the people that work there, especially the ex-Venturians! The credit card business/banking business is a real challenge and at times, very demanding and stressful. They are great about educating their employees and now I am just waiting to move onto Distributed work (web - Java) to broaden my horizons!!!
