Well, everyone pretty knows what I currently do (I think), but I'll go through a little timeline like others.
First job in high school was in a lingerie store (yeah). Once I graduated I enlisted in the Marine Corps with the hopes of after being done with my enlistment I would come out and do what I am doing now. Well, that didn't work out. I made it to third phase boot and got sick. Since I went in with medical waiver I was discharged. I came home exactly a week before my platoon graduated.
Didn't know what to do so I looked for a job as a cabinetmaker since that's the shop I took in high school.
Did well, liked it and stuck with it for about 10 years. Decided I wanted to get back to what I originally wanted to do but before that I re-enlisted in the USNR under the APG program and did 8 years with a CB rating (BU3).
No regrets except for the USMC. The only thing in my life I wish I had a do over.
