[Lvas] An Amateurs Life

[roger ivester]

Fred,

 

I forgot to mention something. I had to work an average of 60+ hours per week which  was mostly six days per week....sometimes seven. The pay was good but I lost or sold 

32 years of my life. 

 

Analogy:

 

It was like riding the Tour de France every day for 32 years and each day consisted of climbing the famed "Alp d'huez". I think this helped me become a better amateur bicycle rider as it helped me to endure suffering and only pedal harder. A pretty sad story...right?

 

I was responsible for two manufacturing plants plus the engineering staffs as a sideline. I can't ever remember a time when any of the staff or plant mangement was happy. These were very large plants employing as many as 300 or more people each.

 

Oh, but to be relieved of that burden after all those years. Now you see why I feel the way I do...relief.

 

Roger

Roger,
 
Hale used a 16" if I remember right. I seem to remember something about a DS-16, but not sure about it.
 
I was always wondering what you did for a living! Must be nice.
 
Fred
