Mr. Slim

if you have a good job today, you have to be thankful for it. i know i went through a lot of lessor jobs until i got hired at Respironics, which is now Philips. i worked there for 14 years until the end of Janurary, when i retired.

congrats & enjoy your retirement.

Mr. Slim

hey tom, just thought that we are lucky to have a forum like this to BS on. how often do people that grew up in the same town reunite. hope you can make it home to town and get out to the flea market.
