James's Story
After graduation in 91, I joined the Army. I seperated from the Army in Feb 99 and attended ECPI in Aug 99. Finished there in 00 and accepted a job as a Field Engineer for Coinstar Inc to run a region in Fayetteville and the surrounding area. In Aug 01 suffered injuries from a car accident and was out of work about 4 months. Took a part time job and looked to go back to college to complete a degree. Accepted a job offer in Mar 02 using my TS security clearance to do some install and configuration work for FBI and US Attorneys office for almost 3 yrs. While traveling around the US for this gig, completed a degree for future career progression purposes. I got a chance to see almost all of America and the things that made our country cool and who we are from a tourists perspective whenever i had down time from work. I went back to school in 2005 (ECPI again), to complete another degree in the IT field and shortly after graduation Aug 2006, i received an offer to go overseas (middle east) to work for DISA for a short while. A position opened up shortly after that in the network...Expand for more
shop where i have been currently going on two years. While here, i have had the chance to travel to Egypt to see the Pyramids/National Egyptian Museum in Cairo, Sharm El Sheik/the Red Sea, Na'ma Bay and in May went to Rome and Athens to check out some history there. I don't get a lot of free time but when i do, i excercise, buy/watch dvd's and sleep(i work 12hr shifts). I plan to be in the middle east a couple more years to get more experience in my career field as well as certs for my job so that when i do get back to America, i can work on enjoying what's left of the life i have because it is indeed to short and you never know when it will end. I definitely plan on being back in country for the 2011 Reunion! So if anyone gets any details about it before then, hit me up and let me know the wheres and whens and i will take some vacation time and be there with bells on! I hope everyone has gone on to do good and exciting things with there lives. I know that i'm doing my best to do so. Also, from the time i left Reynolds until now, i did not get married or have any children.
