College

tended MATC in Madison, WI when it was still called Madison Area Tech School, 1965. An 8 week "keypunch" course and received completion certificate. Keypunch equipment were for data processing, using cards fed from hopper and holes were punched into them as you keyed info. These cards were read by computer. My first job in Madison was with these machines and evolved into computer/data processing employment. 1985 & 1986 took 2 accounting courses through Univ. WI-Extension. Aced the tests, but never employed in that field.
Workplace
My keypunch class attributed to my interest in data processing & computers. Was employed in data processing from 1966 thru 1981 by a variety of cos.- library & school products; candy mfg.; and insurance cos. in WI and Kansas City, MO. Also have worked at mfg. cos. assembly line work. Recently, spouse & I had our own partnership business installing flooring products as sub-contractors. Nine years was enough so we dissolved in June 2003.
