Jose's Story
After high school I spent 3-4 years drafting. The pay sucked and took a $5,000 a year bump to work for the Post Office. I've been there almost 21 years now. There are better jobs in the world but I can't complain. It has helped me buy 3 new cars since I started there as well as a modest Cape home in Dumont, NJ. I've been able to travel and have security for the future. I am currently a supervisor in Tenafly and since I live 3 miles away I go home for lunch every day and take 1 hour lunches. Who says work has to be all bad?
I have been married for 14 years. We have no children but we have 2 beautiful Pit Bulls. They get a bad rap. They are sweet animals, it's only when idiots abuse them that they ...Expand for more
become "dangerous".
I love to play guitar and only wish I had some friends who could come over and jam with me. I watch a lot of TV, love my SIRIUS radio with Howard Stern, and want to get back to playing sports to get into shape.
I always wished I knew in high school what I know now. I would have had more confidence and wonder just how high a ceiling my life could have had. I've had some friends from the PO die in the past few years. Some old, some barely retired, and some as young as me. I realize that there's no point wondering what could have been. Life is now and you have to live it in the "here and now", but it is still interesting to re-connect with people who once were the "here and now".
