Charles's Story
Life
After high school I was making furniture for 4 years, and realized the guy working next to me had been there ten years and made $.50 more than me. I went to college, and then was with a girl for ten years after college including our marriege years. In my industry companies get purchased often, which means I have had several good positions, but the companies were obsorbed by competitors. I have been back at school recently, taking Education and photography classes. I like school a lot and I am doing very well. I own a house in Keego Harbor, not far from where I grew up. It's hard to leave the Sylvan Lake area. I am currently still working in Logistics, and dating a nice woman my own age that grew up in Keego Harbor just a mile from me, but I never really knew her as Keego went to West Bloomfield schools. I really like her, and hope thing work out
School
In high school I never thought I would be going to college, and I never really tried to hard. I did OK, but could have done a lot better. After working a few year I realizes to make enough $ to get my own place I would need to go back to school. I had a good time at Central Mich. Univ., and have done OK for myself. I have never rally liked my jobs, but I think I am good at what I do. I have been taking classes again, and am close to getting an education degree, but I am n...Expand for more
ot even sure that is what I want to do. It sometimes seems that teaching has become a thankless job, and they are being laid off in this area anyway do to problems with the state budget. I don't know what the next carreer for me will be, but I will keep plugging. Of late I have been taking mainly photography classes, but only as a hobby.
College
I basically included this in my "school" section.
Workplace
Right after high school I worked for a company and made different kds of custom modern furniture. I then went to college, and since college I have worked in the field of logistics management. (Meaing I basically arange to have things moved from place to place via truck, rail, air, ocean, etc.) I started with a small company in Pontiac called Expert Freight. We did mainly Railroad moves, but I also helped run a smaller division that consolidated less than truckload shipment going to the ocean piers for export. I then went to a company that did mass nationwide small package distribution. I then took a position as the traffic manager for F&M for 3 yrs, and then did the same thing at Arbor for 5-6 more. When CVS bought them I worked For Dial Soap for a short time before going back into distribution while I went to school again. I was at Gilbert Home Del'y till they were purchased, and am now with a company called LOGISYS, INC.
