Dave's Story
Life
After graduation, I kept busy going to college, dropping out of college, going to college, dropping out of... well, you get the idea. ; ) After a few years in Minneapolis and a few more in Atlanta, I tried Iowa and again to Minnesota. But seven years ago I decided to take a promotion and relocation back to Atlanta. I've been here ever since. 6 years ago I took a job as Manager of a very successful Photo Lab and enjoy it very much. I've been doing some photography on the side and have sold some of my work. Some of the things I've been doing lately:
Took a two week vacation to Hawaii in April 2001, and a 10 day flyfishing/camping trip to Utah, Wyoming and Idaho in June 2001. I went on a driving trip in 2002 out west, with my parents to show them all the beautiful sights I have fallen in love with.
It's now 2005 and I continue my job in Atlanta and playing around with my photography. Haven't been out west now for 3 years. I'm kind of itching to get back there for a week or two. I've been taking smaller trips to places in the Southeast, like The Smokey Mountains and Washington D.C..
UPDATE:: July 2005 - Got a chance to get home for a few days and see friends and family. Went to Summerfest and saw James Taylor among other bands... Left for Denver Area after Summerfest and went camping/hiking/fishing/4 wheelin' and had a very nice time. If your in Atlanta, look me up, I love to see old friends and catch up.
NEW:: March 2008 - Finally getting some time to...Expand for more
work with my photography. I'm planning to have a book published sometime before Christmas this year. I have begun selling my photos commercially. This summer I plan to take a vacation to Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire and add to my photo portfolio. Still at same job... 10 years...
School
I enjoyed High School very much... BUT
I wish I would have applied myself more in school. (studied harder)
I also wish I had gotten to know more of my classmates better. I was shy and couldn't push myself to "join in the conversation" and get to really become good friends with anyone.
College
Spent 1 Semester at Mount Senario College on football scholorship (hated it)
Spent 2 Years at Madison Area Tech School (Transferred)
Spent 1/2 Year at UW-Madison (dropped out)
Too much time working to live, and no time for studying.
Took some night classes over the last 10 years but nothing substantial.
Workplace
I'm currently employed at In & Out Photo as lab manager. I have 8 employees I keep watch over. I've been doing this for about 7 years and I really like what I do. I do most of the ad layouts for the store, design business cards for customers, digital restorations, and lots and lots of roll film printing!
We have 2 photo printing machines going all the time, and we have a 50" wide large format printer (big inkjet printer) which we can do canvas prints on.
We've recently started a new Portrait Studio, and Custom Framing Shop. It keeps me really busy (10-12 hours a day)
