Harold Mick's Story
Life
I moved from South Park in "84 and relocated to Clearwater, Fl. In about a year the whole family moved back (Cranberry Twp) but I stayed.
I made my way to the University of Florida, Go Gators!, and graduated with a B.S. in Microbiology. I had a job with Golden State Foods,a food production plant, in Conyers, Ga, making McDonalds products. I started in the Quality Assurance Lab but moved into a position in the production area. That gave me the experience for my next job with ecMarkets. We helped large companies source supplies, mostly the food industry, and run reverse auctions on our website for the business. I worked out of the home and travel to the different companies to host the auction events.
I got layed off and went to work for QuikTrip, a convenience store as an assistant manager, looking to go back to school for a masters degree.
A new chapter in my life has started in 2003, I was accepted into the Medical College of Georgia and received my Bachelors in Respiratory Therapy. I have received a medical license from the state of Georgia and passed three state board tests. The first is a certification, the second and third give me a registered stature. I am very active in asthma education for children and their parents and sit on the planning committee for the American Lung Association's, Camp Breathe Easy. It is a week long overnight camp that teaches kids how to maintain their asthma and the medicines that they are on. I also work at Gwinnett Medical Center...Expand for more
in Lawrenceville, Georgia, 2005. I also work part-time at the hospital in Covington. We now live in Lilburn, GA, and are happy to be 15 minutes from work instead of an hour. Lilburn is close to Stone Mountain, tourist attraction here locally.
My wife is a veterinarian and we have a houseful of "kids" (3 dogs and 12 cats). We are very active in the welfare of all animals because of the ignorance of others. Please adopt from your local shelter and spay/neuter your pets.
School
I have many fond memories of going to South Park and think of them often . I wish I had learned from my mistakes sooner but some of us go through the life the hard way. I do not think I would change much, because all the experiences made me the person I am today. Hope to see old friends one day, maybe at the next reunion. 2008?
College
GOING TO SCHOOL PARTTIME AND WORKING TAKES A LONG TIME TO GET THROUGH. I ACCOMPLISHED IT IN 11yrs RECORD TIME, (HA! HA!) BUT I DID IT. I AM HAPPY I WAS PERSISTENT, BUT ALSO THAT MY WIFE WAS PERSISTENT WITH ME. SHE HELPED ME REALIZE I NEEDED TO FINISH AND KEPT ME GOING WITH ENCOURAGEMENT.
Now I HAVE DECIDED TO GO BACK SINCE I REALLY DID NOT KNOW WHAT I WANTED TO BE WHEN I GREW UP. I HAVE GRADUATED FROM THE MEDICAL COLLEGE OF GEORGIA WITH A BACHELORS IN RESPIRATORY THERAPY.
I work in a hospital near Atlanta now and love every minute of it. I wish I had thought of this years ago for a career, but not too many people know of it.
DROP ME A LINE, I WOULD ENJOY HEARING FROM OLD FRIENDS
