College of the Mainland

Further down the road, a couple odd jobs after that, I got a call from a company called Laser Key Products in Baycliff, Texas.

I guess they had gotten my information from the machining school that I had attended at College of the Mainland, and they needed fresh meat.

The pay wasn't that good at all.

but they were making uh machines for locksmiths that make keys or replicate keys they're basically like a little three axis four axis miniature vertical mill that can you know mill out a key some have a rotary axis on them but anyways i started out there i started out in their assembly because they wanted me to understand their product and then for the first four hours of the day and then the next four hours, I was working in a machine shop.

It's funny how to see the winding road of all the journeys is so fun.

Speaking of the journey of College of the Mainland, I want to touch on the fact that I am super proud of you because you don't have a college degree.

You're doing this literally in your 60s.

With no business experience and no college degree.
