Gregory's Story
Life
I graduated in the c/o 1983. Homeroom was Mrs. Wrenn, never did much and didn't get serious about school until halfway through the 11th. In the state identified gifted program (a living hell for me!) I took my first job at a car wash right after discovering that I had no business trying to be a gangbanger, then worked security at the 84 Olympics. More security work followed after dropping out of Southwest Community (which I hated... my mom went there too! arg!) Then worked for the LAUSD (more security.. known as Audabon 9 at some junior high, can't remember which one :)... Then took an office position after graduating (ahem.) from Sierra/National College of Business (where I learned how to type a blazing 25 wpm) Discovered an understanding of computers (remember Tandy computer...Expand for more
