UD Maintenance Crew
Driving around, my brain randomly thought about my first job. I was hired as a student assistant with the Upper Dublin maintenance crew. I was paid $5.75 an hour and my job was expendable. In fact, I was more of a detriment than an asset. Consider the time I was sent...
There’s a Proud Little Man
Press the button. *Blank Copy Produced* Hand the copy to a person. Smile while doing it. That's the task that has made this little man proud. Without a sense of fulfillment, we have nothing. Every human has a different level of self satisfaction that keeps them going....
