Paul's Story

Hello! I thought I would post a little something about myself. I graduated from the John A. Bishop elementary school in 1978, Henry Ottoson Jr. High in 1980 and Lexington Christian Academy in 1984. After High School, I attended Northeastern University (Burlington Mass campus) but bombed out after 1 semester. I finished out the academic year at Newman Preparatory in Boston and in the fall, I enrolled at Wentworth Institute of Technology where I graduated in 1989 with a BSET. My goal was to become an electrical engineer and work for Boston Edison. I went for several interviews, but nothing panned out. Then in April of 1990, I interviewed for a position at a telecommunications company named Allnet Communication Services. I was one of two people who interviewed for the job. I landed it because I was able to start right away. 19 years later, I'm still employed by the same company (but we underwent two mergers. The name changed from Allnet Communication Services to Frontier Communications to the current name Global Crossing). My job was to install our telephone equipment in the offices of customers who requested it. After 6 months, the position was eliminated....Expand for more
I was told to either cross train on the inside telephone switch equipment or start looking for another job. Needless to say I opted to stay. Today I am a Level III technician out of our Boston Operations site where I maintain our switch equipment, routers, frame relays and even install routers for the company at various customer offices in and around the Boston area. I am also very active at my church. I installed the telephone system, doncated the Sanctuary sound system and did some upgrades to rooms in the building. Having a small and somewhat elderly congregation affords me the chance to help out with the tasks that are needed to keep the place functioning. Other than that, I can't think of much more to say at this time, but if something hits me over the head, I'll be sure to write it! Update: In 2012, Global Crossing was acquired by Level(3). My position was moved to the Level(3) operations site in Cambridge Mass on Bent Street shortly thereafter. In August of 2013, my position was eliminated and I was laid-off. Subsequent job interviews did not yield any offers. I have suspended my job search and am acting as my mom's caregiver. More updates to follow.
