Well, to start with I am a full time husband and father. And that is a 24 hour job in itself!lol But in my free time I am a licensed vending machine operator. Meaning I make sure the snack, pop, and coffee machines at 6 locations are always full, clean, and working. I also have been coaching wrestling for the last 20 years, and with my limited technology background, I help a few friends setup and trouble shoot certain issues, and most of them can see. For some strange reason they think I am a genius, who am I to argue?lol I am also I licensed Minister at my church, and have a associates degree in theology. Plan on pursuing a degree to be a marriage counselor, but I will do that when all my kids are in school full time.
