Buzzy - Ahhh...how nice to see another Grummanite! Worked on the E-2C, F-14 EF-111 projects. Bethpage. Left in 94. Not retired yet and still a wanna-be Villager.

I worked at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the early part of my career.
I was especially proud that I built a couple of devices that helped in a research project being conducted by PHD's. One helped to determine exactly how a product was causing damage to a baby's brain after being washed in it. The other device helped in defining of the various stages of sleep.
All credit goes to the researchers and engineers for their dedicated work.

I am presently at a site that houses two companies.
Alpha Disability - helps veterans obtain the highest level of disability compensation possible from the VA.
Freedom Disability - helps people with disabilities apply or appeal to win their disabilty benefits from SSA.

They also gve to various charities, food bank, toys for tots, clothing donations. I am impressed with their giving nature and they treat their employees with dignity and respect.

Wow! Sounds challenging and fullfilling.

I spent close to 20 years with a couple of advertising agencies, in the field of market research. Nothing really very exciting, but a horde of fascinating co-workers.

Followed by nearly 20 years in a small family-owned (maximum number of employees over that time was 10) travel agency. The owner/boss was exceedingly opinionated, and wasn't shy about telling clients not to go to a place (Jamaica was her main target), nor about why! She was hard to work for, but I learned one h*** of a lot about travel sites around the world.

My most satisfying job was the mostly part-time U.S. Army Reserve duty I had over the years. I served a total of some 29 years, rising from the lowliest of the low, the drafted recruit (1959) to a reasonably respectable Lieutenant Colonel, retiring in 1988. I accummulated a total of 11 years of active duty, which now helps me to fully enjoy The Villages' lifestyle!

I'd like to hear more about alpha disability. I worked for VA and now help vets thru the American Legion. I was heavily involved in the disability claims arena for almost 30 years.
