Southern Tech Student Center 1978 and 1979
Lockheed of Georgia - 1980.
Before I finished at Southern Tech I took a part time job with Lockheed in the Damage analysis and tracking department.
Basically we calculated, for the Air Force, when the wings were going to fall off the fleet.
The great thing a...Expand for more
bout this job was I had free access to the Univac, DEC and IBM systems at Lockheed. My meager skills with the computing systems led to other jobs within Lockheed and eventually I was able to transfer directly to the IT department in Special projects.
Working with Jim Weigle, Tom Downing and Niel Nix I was able to learn a new career.
Neil Nix and I carpooled and supported the mainframes in Special projects for four years. Neil left for IBM in 1988 and then I left for IBM in 1989 when Special projects shut down.
I have done all sorts of jobs with IBM. Hardware installation planner to Senior Network Integrater. I currently specialize in outsourcing commercial customers and bringing them into the IBM service delivery center.
The worst day at IBM still beats an average day at Lockheed. I do miss the planes and the secret stuff! Working from home and not complaining at all.
In February 2008 my division was sold to AT&T. I still work from home and I was able to take advantage of the AT&T MBA program.
