John's Story
School
A big HELLO to all the friends and acquaintances in any of the 9 schools I went to.
Nothing earth shattering in my school history. The most interesting part was a year in a boy's school north of Winnipeg, with marathon canoe trips and snowshoe runs. Frankly, much of the rest flew by in a blurry buzz....after '73 especially.
Workplace
Seismic drill crews on and off for 10 years.
In between those projects and same 10 years, security guard, pizza delivery, night contract cleaner, real estate sales, construction labourer, stay-at-home-dad, courier, some other short gigs I can't remember.
After moving to the US, welder/ fabricator building pressure vessels (tanks) for breweries & wineries & juice ...Expand for more

From 1994 to 2004 (excluding a year off- 2002)freight railcar manufacturing, QA, weld engineering system activities, robotics implementation and support, manage a support technician group.
