I HAVE OVER 35 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN THE COMMUNICATIONS FIELD. I BEGAN MY CAREER IN THE U.S. ARMY AS A COMMUNICATIONS WIREMAN, STATIONED IN KITZEGEN, GERMANY. THEN WENT ON TO ITT IN ATLANTA, GEORGA, AS A SYSTEMS INSTALER, LATER TOOK A POSITION WITH CONTEL/EXECUTONE, FAIRFIELD, NEW JERSEY AS A SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE, COVERING SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY, UNTIL I WAS REASSIGINED TO MANHATTAN. IN LATE 1989 - 1990, I FOUNDED KRIER COMMUNICATIONS A FULL SERVICE TELECOMMUNICATIONS COMPANY PROVIDING TELEPHONE SYSTEMS, VOICE PROCESSING SYSTEMS,AND MANY OTHER PERIPHERAL SYSTEMS (EXTERNAL PAGING, ELECTRONIC LOCKS/GATES, CCTV THEN IP CAMERAS ECT. ECT.) ALONG WITH VOICE AND DATA NETWORK CABLING TO BUSINESSES. I STARTED IN THIS INDUSTRY BACK IN THE 1A2KEY WORLD BEFOR THERE WAS EVEN A COLOR CODE FOR CABLE, IT USED TO BE CALLED PICK CABLE CAUSE YOU HAD TO PICK YOUR PAIRS, AND HAVE WATCH THIS FIELD GO THRU SO MANY CHANGES, ITS ALMOST LIKE SCIENCE FICTION. PANASONIC SUMMED IT UP PRETTY GOOD " NOW ANY VALID PHONE NUMBER IN THE WORLD IS OR CAN BE AN EXTENSION OF YOUR SYSTEM " WERE SENDING VOICE, INFORMATION, PICTURES, EVERYWERE AND ANYWERE IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE, OVER COPPER, FIBER, WIRLESSLY, WHO KNOWS WHATS NEXT ITS BEEN A GREAT RIDE. I GUESS MY OBJECTIVES NOW WOULD BE TO TAKE CARE OF MY CUSTOMER BASE AND TO BRING INTO THIS INDUSTRY NEW YOUNG TECHNICIANS AND TO TRAIN THEM SO THEY WILL BE ABLE TO KEEP THIS RIDE GOING TO THE STARS. I LIKE NOT ONLEY TRAINING THEM BUT TELLING THEM WHY THINGS ARE DONE THE WAY THEY ARE TELLING STORYS OF OF MY EXPERIANCES FROM BACK WHEN A 5 LINE PHONE NEEDED 50 WIRES OR 25 PAIR, WHAT IT WAS LIKE THE FIRST TIME I SAW A MODULAR END AND JACK, OR MY FIRST PUNCH TOOL, IN THE HOPE THAT THEY WILL EXPERIANCE THE SAME SATISFACTION I DO EVERYDAY IN THIS INDUSTRY WHICH WILL FOLLOW THEM INTO EVERY PART OF THERE LIVES. SEE YA HOPE ALL IS WELL. MICHAEL KRIER
