Summary

This is not your typical summary. I grew up learning customer service and accounting. My father owned a retail store and I went to work with him every weekend. My mother did the books for the business and taught me skills to include accounts payable, accounts receivable etc. I love to teach and learn. I have great attendance. I can work circles around these young people. Only because they make work out of not doing anything.
