I left out something in my resume that I haven't seen yet. During the years I worked on the level II main frame, our computer room was going away so by way of a warehouse job operating a small system that was responsible for printing invoices I then went on to work in the semi conductor division of the factory. I helped make those little chips that are running our computers,garage door openers, phones,cars,and just about everything else you can think of.

[quote=K.P.]I worked in Human Resources for a large semiconductor manufacturing company as a stand-up trainer/material developer for 35 years.

Before that, I worked as an Engineering Technician in the manufacture of semiconductor devices, and prior to that I was a floral designer, and nurses aide.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I read 12 pages and didn't see anything about semiconductors so I went to page 47 and added semiconductors to my list. Out of 17 years I worked 2 years in multiprobe testing chips probably for the same company you worked for. Then went to page 13 and started reading again and there you were!!

Everyone is so diverse and yet we are the same. It takes a creative and a visual thinker to be a quilter. I have discovered not everyone can see things the way we can.

I was a nurse for 20 years and a health insurance claims manager for about 15 years and now happily retired, but thinking about taking a H & R Block tax course this fall, but wondering if I have the time.

I am a retired Social Worker. My degree is in Gerontology with a speciality in Mental Health in Aging. I am Also an Activity Therapist and hold a degree there too. I have now been retired 20 years. I finally let my State license go a few years ago. I figured I would not be returning into the work force.
Now I am a quilter and crafter for the most part. I have an active retirement and am a stay at home person.

Hmmmm- Started as a social worker working with abused women as well as part time working with at risk youth(kids are expensive had 2 jobs) Then I went into Law Enforcement for many years, then back to social services. I grew weary of seeing the "dark side of humanity" on a daily basis (sometimes it's hard to leave work at work). I got into accounting and now I work from home doing books for our business.
