Worked for a major candy/confectionery company as a facilities/operations manager for 28 years. They made me an offer that I couldn't refuse and I accepted it.
Didn't like retirement & was too young so I have been working for a large university as a project coordinator on major construction projects for the past 7 years. Life is good!

So you already have a BS in Nursing? but you are working as a medical assistant. You are in the medical field and you just got caught speeding in excess of 100 mph? I guess you never spent any time in an ER. When is comes to making choices, you exhibit poor skills, not something I would brag about.

Yes, I been in the ER when I volunteered with the paramedics and nonetheless I have been a patient when I had a broken clavicle.
I am glad you are interested in my skills, unfortunately I do have a personal life that doesn't interfere with my career. Perhaps yours does in small town in Pennsylvania?

I'm in here...
Started out as a Paramedic
Then opened a performance shop in the late 90's. Initially did engine swaps, installs, etc, but then went more into development work building forced induction systems and doing fabrication (roll cages, race chassis, etc).
I then partnered with a fool and was COO of a company that built turnkey Factory Five GTM's. We also operated "Affordable Supercars" and brokered exotics, race cars, etc.
Our cars made it around the world, surprisingly...things like Speed channel's Battle of the Supercars..
That situation fizzled when my partner went to jail for tax evasion. Now I'm working on becoming CEO of another small car company building a custom exotic for 2.1 million. We're in talks/negotiations now. So...I'm hoping. Over the past year since my partner went away I opened a bar/restaurant which I've now sold/flipped.
I do a bunch in between...consulting, graphic design, web design, etc...along with building a few projects right now.

Maybe he wants to be able to help the family with two young kids that he crashes into at 100 mph. Hope there is even a chance to help them.
