I was invisible ... If I told you I'd have to kill you.

Hey Len, just posted a review on Chris and his team. Another great job by Investment Painters. Btw, our third Village home.

Oh to answer your question...I started a marketing company 1997 from my basement, grew it successfully and moved to an office and warehouse, and recently sold it. Before that I worked for the finest healthcare company (Johnson & Johnson) where I learned how to run and grow a successful company.

Love it but love retirement more!

Mr. Len, Started off in the Supermarket as a kid and loved to Caddy ay the C.C. Then building computers designed for Typesetting then Owned a Copy Machine Sales and Service for Panasonic.

Total change into truck driving for years and the Management of Several Concrete plants in Staten Island and Crooklyn. Finished my career out at a Cement Distribution Company. Looking in the review mirror I loved every job I had and was grateful for all of them. I was a Union Negotiator and a Fixer of Sorts.

I also owned a sliver of a Taxi Business. Wanna talk about fun, I had a blast and made a bundle and Never got robbed. I couldn't wait to go to work. It was fun as hell and all the older people asked for me because I got out of the car like my butt was on fire to open the door for them. It showed in my tips at the end of the day.

Now, Here I am, Heaven on Earth.

Software Project Manager for company that produced CAT, CR and DR medical scanners. I was a programmer in the eighties and early nineties until my boss said one day that he had an opportunity for me as a supervisor. It would be fun he said. I didn't realize at the time how much he must have hated me to do that!

Yup, we've talked before. 10 1/2 for me about 3 blocks south of Eastgate. I remember Beck's. You remember Pepe's Hamburgers, Centennial Lanes, Travis Burger ? Hmm, must be lunchtime!
