Rosie's Story
I always wanted to be a grammar school teacher when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a good profession for me, since I get a big kick of what young kids do & they say the funniest things;As it turned out, it did not happen!! At this time of my life, I checked the need for teachers & they were too many, so instead I went to "ELAC" & took accounting/clerical courses, did not get my AA, but instead went to work for my brother in real estate and his construction company back in 1974. He was my mentor & I learned a lot from him. I worked with him for almost 10-yrs; but I had no life & if I had not stepped out of this box, my son, Jason...Expand for more
, would have never been born, he was born in May, 1983. He is wonderful & since he was 2 yrs old,it has only been him & me. I put him thru school (Went to USC, got his bachelor's in Electrical Engineering in 2005.
Now I am over 50 yrs old & there is nothing I would do different, I love my life and everything that has happened to me.
I have worked in many fields, insurance,clerical,accounting office,construction ,electrical contractors office,LA school district for ESL, auto dealerships office and today I run a commercial landscape company in the city of Chino with over 50 employees. So my life is not boring & I love always having something to do.
