Thomas's Story

Life Life? Well according to the tally on the lower right side of the screen, I have exactly 3911 characters to fully elabora....wait 3870...no, 3859...whatever. With the twenty-year reunion fast approaching and a rare Saturday with time to waste on classmates, I can give a brief synopsis. My life is idyllic. For some reason, I have been blessed by the Good Lord to have a loving wife, a healthy son, another baby on the way. Okay, let's be honest. Reunions are about showing off, and the only disappointment about the twenty year reunion is that my wonderful,lovely (read: hot) wife will be eight months pregnant and the selfish side that I know everyone tries to hide with contrived piety is disappointed that I won't have her normal hourglass figure to show off at my side. Good thing I no longer have an English Composition teacher critiquing me on my run-on sentences. So, back to life. We actually do have the white picket fence... oops, the boy is awake, gotta go College Wandered around for the first few years, got a nominal degree in human services, finished a degree in Geology, did environmental work (toxic waste cleanup, etc.) but wasn't a great fit. After that disillusionment, I substitute taught for a few years looking for a better direction. I discovered Prosthetics and Orthotics(orthoped...Expand for more
ic bracing) and pursued that career. Went to CSUdominguez hills for orthotics and finished up at northwestern for prosthetics. I love the work, put up with the hmo's, and enjoy an rewarding job. Workplace Work biography for the past 17 years? Man, what a long road that seems! I actually left from graduation ceremonies to work my first job after high school at Hume Lake Christian Camp. College was mostly waiting tables. First career post-college was Geologist. That field made me a cynic about cleaning the environment so I left (why not? still single, young, and miserable at work? More people should.) I was a sub for a while and looked around. I found the Prosthetics field and started on my graduate work. While in grad school, I taught Cotillion (that's right, ballroom dancing and manners for little kids!) One of the best jobs of my life! Great pay, great hours, plenty of time for school, and a great staff. Not the kind of job you could have for the rest of your life. After school finished, time for residencies and medical boards and such. Worked for a couple of years for a Prosthetics facility and then had the opportunity to open my own place. Now I work even harder! But I wouldn't trade this experience for anything in the world. I have been blessed beyond my wildest imagination.
