Grant's Story
Let's see, about a year after high school, I spent 4 years in Military Intelligence, Army Security Agency.
Went directly to YSU after the service and after seven years of switching majors, I got a degree in electronics. While at YSU, I worked as the manager of Tandy Leather in Lincoln Knolls Plaza and later in Murphy Mart Plaza. Got a job with ComDoc copy machine company for 5 years then on to WCI Steel in Warren.
I've been with WCI Steel ( A.K.A. Severstal Steel, RG Steel) for the last 24 years, working with electronics and computers. Closed in 2012.
I have been with my wife, Melanie, from 1999 to present. We started a travel business 9-11-2001 and we are both Accredited Cruise Counselors.

If I won $100 million, I'd give some of it to relatives, then spend the rest on taxes, cruises and travel.
I share my home with 3 cats, which I find peacefull...Expand for more

I have trophies and certificates for Tournaments over the years in Tae Kwon Do. I am now a Black Belt in the same, thanks to Master Park Martial Arts International.
Some say, at our later years of life, that if we were meant to do the things we think we missed out on, then we wouldn't have missed out on them. There's a lot of things I wish I had done or finished, for a career, but I have had a good living for the most part and a career that has kept me happy to go back to work each day.
Sometimes jobs are like a Rubic's Cube puzzle and I tend to keep at it until I solve it. The things I would like to do over is getting the timing right for all the incidents that have caused me broken bones or health problems later in life, and prevent them. Everything else that I have made choices on may not have been any better if I chose differently so I have no regrets there.
