July 3, 200818 yr First job I worked was in the Electronics department at K-Mart... That didn't last too long. Then I did Customer Care/Technical Support for Boost Mobile cell phones for a little over a year... Then it was on to the company that currently employs me, doing internet technical support. That lasted from September until March or so. Since then, I'm still with the company, but I've moved on and I now work with one other guy in the Training department. We train everything... Safety, processes, new tools/systems, customer service... We write all material from scratch. There's some travel involved... Tons of meetings, and very little time to look up when I'm at work -- But I absolutely love this job!
