Kenneth's Story
Life
After High School I attended SJSU for 3 years. Joined the Navy (Air Wing) went to school in the Memphis area and then moved to Coronado, Ca to work and continue college. My apartment was a real hole but it was close to the beach. Spent many hours doing homework on the beach. The water was great compared to Santa Cruz. Got sent over to several other countries. Moved back to San Jose to graduate. Went to work for Zilog after graduation and then 6 years later I went to work for Linear Tech. Still at LTC. Hate It/Love it. I think my job is safe. I keep a lot of documentation in my head. Someday I may get it down on paper (well in the computer). We are so understaffed I juggle dozens of projects. The other MEs have never figured out my cadd file system. It's so simple.
We get 6 weeks sabatical every 5 years and my regular 4 weeks vacation a year. This gives me t...Expand for more
he opportunity to travel.
It has been years since I update this. Its August 2008 now. We've been married 3 years now. It took a good push. It's sabatical time again. Jennifer wanted to stay home this time. My feet haven't recovered completely from my long trip to China two years ago. Must be old age. Jennifer insisted that we see China the way the Chinese live. We went places where they must have never seen a tall white guy. Half the population must have had my picture taken with them. Plus it was during a heat wave. I am not a heat person. Some of the things I saw and ate were super unusual.
I'll work on the house and get some exercise this vacation. The new house is next to a park that San Jose hasn't improved. If everything goes ok with the parks department I'll be planting trees and taking care of them for some years. Plus there is the long list of honey do's.
