More about William:"Well here is a little info about me after High School. I left school not really knowing where I was going. Tried the Military scored really high on the ASVAB but a medical condition that has never given me any troble kept me from serving my country. I did not know at the time, but this had an impact on some of the decisions that I made about the direction that I was going.
Well as fate would have it a phone call came and I happened to be at home (well where else would I be did not have a job). It was for a Field Engineer helpers position with a commercial construction company. Alittle bit about that title. Field means outside, Engineer means you are supposed to be smater than the carpenters and labors trying to build the building. Actually you take the blue prints, interpret them locate the building correctly on the property. Then you layout all the different aspects of the building. Thats a pretty simplified description.
Well this was great making drinki...Expand for more
ng money. Still no clear direction. A year or two passes then the light came on. OTJT had given me the opportunity to move up. Hey I could actually do this for a living, and the money was not bad.
Working in construction your object is to finish the building, and when you do this if the company you are working for does not have another contract for another building you look for another job. So I worked for several different companies.
1997 I hired on with Manhattan Construction as a Chief Field Engineer. I helped them build a few buildings. Then I was promoted to Superintendent. A description of all the things this position is responsible for would be to long. Short version is this coordination of all the subcontractors that are choosen, maintaing schedule and costs associated with the project.
I met my wife along the way at a fitness center (1990). I think she put the bulb in the socket. She already had a two year old son. We were married in 1993. 1995 Micheala joined us, then 1997 Natalie joined us.
Kimberly was working up until Nat was born, then she applied for the position as a Domestic Engineer. She is still in the probation period but do not tell her that (12 years).
Well that is the short version. I am loving life. My wife and my kids are my world, as you will see with the pictures that I post. It feels really good to hear from all of you and see what you have been up to.".
