Eddie's Story

Life Hello Everyone, I graduated from FACS in June 1975. I entered the U.S. Marine Corps directly after graduation (seven days later). Mr. Gordon and Mr. Crawford told me I had to get out of town.(Just kidding, Ray & John). The next 21 yrs. 9 months I led the life of a Marine. My career was in law enforcement as an M.P., traffic investigator, criminal investigation, and working as an anti-terrorist instuctor later in my career. I have been married twice and I am currently divorced, but I am in a very committed relationship. I have 2 beautiful kids, I've been in 3 major conflicts, 2 peace keeping missions, have had one heart attack and 6 total trips around the world,after all that I decided to RETIRE (Imagine That). I moved to Southern California and I became a Corporate Safety Supervisor for a Los Angeles based freight company. My passions in life are my music(still alive from high school)and my 1998 Harley Davidson,Roadglide. I own and operate a Mobile Disc Jockey service out of my home and have done so for 23 years. I would love to here from any and all from Fort Ann Central. I am very active in my community as an advocate and supporter of law enforcement, and volunteer for a lot of childrens programs and charities. I don't have too much spare time on my hands but I figure I can rest when I'm in my grave...... I was in NY for a year but the job situation sucked, so I moved back in Southern California. I became the Western Regional Recruiter/Safety Supervisor for an air freight company in L.A. and I am a free lance writer for a motorcycle enthusiast magazine called "Free Wheelin" & Quick Throttle. In May 2003 I moved to Columbus, Ohio to assume a corporate position with Forward Air Inc. In April 2005 I was offered a Regional Safety position with a company called Transportation Industries (Br...Expand for more
isk Transportation)where I am today. Linda & I now have a home in Canal Winchester, Ohio and I see my kids regularly. Brandi is a Vetrenary Tech & Timmy is on the Deans List at Wright State University in Lima, Ohio. I ride my Harley daily and plan on travelling the US and Canada when I retire AGAIN, Yah Right. Linda & I are supporters & advocates of all Troop Support issues. We were on the Welcome Home Committee for Lima Company 3/25 here in Ohio. One third of the company was killed or injured during their 9 months in Iraq. It is one of the most satisfying ventures we have been a part of. Remember, when you see a Vet, Say Thank you Semper Fi All, Eddie Workplace I was hired as a Driver Recruiter/Safety Supervisor. I completed my recruiting mission three months early and I am now teaching Forklift Operations, Basic Haz-Mat Training and Haz-Mat Specific Training to all our employee's in the Western Region. Just before Memorial Day 2003, I was promoted to our companies Corporate/Operational hub as their National Recruiting Manager and subsequently moved to Columbus, Ohio where I now reside. Almost two years to the day another company called me and offered me a chance of a lifetime. I am the Regional Safety Manager for Transportation Industries (BRISK Transportation)in Delaware, OH. I presently oversee 110 Owner/Operator's and have maintained an outstanding National Safety Rating of 2% or less. This is 97% better than my last company. With accident ratio's down tremendously, I can focus on making my company money and of course make me some money. A company made me an offer I couldn't refuse. In April 06 I left Brisk to be a Director of Safety for Bulk Transit Corp. in Plain City, OH. It is a family owned company with 260 power units and 400 trailers. It is a challange but after a year I like it a lot.
