My Work Career

My first real job was at Getman Brothers in Marion, OH (1972-1976)
Next was Worthing Steel in Worthington (Columbus), OH. (1976-1977)

Next, the big deal was with IBM, first in Lexington, KY, and then Mansfield, OH (1977 - 2020)

After retiring from IBM, I had a 12 month stint with CodeLogic (Feb 2021 - Feb 2022)

Then I took a job as a contractor working for NewGen Technologies on a contract with IBM, on a contract to another company, who is a contractor to a government agency. It wasn't many hours per week, so it was a good preview of retirement. It afforded me time to do projects around the house, and to get more involved in prison ministry, church leadership, and recovery groups. God has been so good to me by leading in my career. The NewGen/IBM/Skyward/CMS gig ended in November. It actually went longer than planned, but resulted in far fewer hours than was purported at the start.

As the weather got colder and the outside projects were wrapping up, I realized I wanted a job. Preferably an outside being active job. My neighbor Bo recommended me for a job. Waiting for it to finalize.

I got the job at Ace Electrical and have been working there since December. I enjoy the work, and like the people. It's been great.
