Summary
Began in telemarketing at the Time-Life Libraries, Inc. branch in Minneapolis, MN in 1977 and over my 18 month stay was the highest earner in a top national office.
Following were jobs developing the Fingerhut Company telemarking operation (1980) and a supervisory position at Time-Life Libraries, Inc.
Met with great success at numerous telemarketing and management positions over the years.
I recovered from a homeless stint in 2005 with a courier position that lead to business ownership in 2007 and finally retirement in 2019 after which I moved to Wichita Falls.
Now I'm looking for something interesting with a reasonable renumeration.
