A's Story

Life HELLO everybody..... as you can see most of our class has failed to provide any bio-information. So not to be like everyone else ...... here it goes: After graduation went to Cancun with Ty. Had a blast. Continued working at Midland American Bank. I was actually there from 1986-1991 ..... later moved to Fort Worth. Attended TCU for 2.5 years. Pre-Dental Program. Got bored and ran out of the $$$. Decided I didn't want to finance school and later have BIG FAT student loans to pay back. I had been working at Overton Bank while in school and later went to full-time Marketing. Worked there from 1991-1996. Got tired of the endless corporate ladder back stabbing and upper management getting all the credit. No $$$ for the little guys...I quit and started my own landscaping business. More kindof a consultant? contractor? It's been a roller coaster ride and i've learned that putting all your eggs in one basket is a BIG "no - no". For a regular paycheck, i even got to manage the local "JACKALOPE" a garden import store. Well that store has closed (July 31,2001) ..... onto the next chapter in my life. I'm actually working on setting up my own "little" store ...... CAMP BOWIE IMPORTS! Grand Opening Aug 31, 2001 ...... i've got to get it rolling now ....... in order to hit it hard at "CHRISTMAS" ..... that's where the real $$$$ is in the retail sector. Wish me luck .......... and stop in, if you're in Fort Worth. It's June 2003 ..... Camp Bowie Imports is still going strong and i even opened up another store "Terra Cot...Expand for more
ta Mule" by a local mall. :) It's Aug 9, 2004 ..... Life's OK, still have my two little stores. It's March 23,2005 ....still doing the import store business. Retail is tough ...so if you're ever in Fort Worth, Texas ...stop by and say "hi" or with just a few keystrokes .... visit my website! It's Feb 28,2006 .....we moved our Terra Cotta Mule store to a larger location. Everything's good...and we're going on my "first" cruise next month . :>) It's June 23,2007 ......I've consolidated my retail into one "new" location a mercantile where all I worry about is rent & 6% commission fee....no more over-head...and all I've got to work is 4 hours a month. So with all my FREE time.... I'm helping Ty with his business. He owns DFW DOGWATCH and we're building a retail showroom in North Richland Hills. The warehouse shop is called "Petronics Plus" and we're looking at July for a soft opening ....with a BIG GRAND OPENING later Aug or Sept. Visit his website <<<dfwdogwatch.com>>> It's July 21, 2008 ......retail totally closed down for now. Setting up in the mercantile was easy, but there's no one there to promote your products...and boy do the love "collecting" rent $$$ even though you're not selling anything. Kindof disappointed by experience. But with current economy, getting out of retail was smart. 2009 ===> Currently using my life experiences & knowledge, working in "operations" for a construction & electrical company. Learning a TON of new stuff and it's FUN! "Find a place to stand, and move the world" :>)
