We hold meetings every other month and discuss various pen topics including pen repairs, ink discussions, distributors, etc....I hope to grow the club into committee's that can support the pen community at large with our vast knowledge that we have with in our body....

To prepare meetings every other month, along with locations, and prizes for the "masses". This is a small sampling of what it is that I do. The 1st two sentances basically say it all.

I am currently on Long Term Dissability from the work accident in January 2004

At that time I was promoted to Operations Manager, and overseen the management of approximately 200 employee's and 12 Managers. It was in this position that I also overseen the Safety department as well. In this capacity, I overseen the Reconditioning Departments, Lot Departments, the "Gate", Security, Arbitration, teaching the management staff how to manage by the numbers with their departments financial statements, keeping the management staff motivated via weekly meetings, management books, seminars. It was in this position that I was severely injured in Jan, 15, 2004, when a new employee was driving a SUV had a massive heart attack, mashed his foot against the accelerator and struck me in my right side throwing me thru the air and landing on my face/head. I technically "died" in that accident and the paramedic's and helicopter people did NOT want to load a dead person onto their helicopter and rush him across town, as he was considered dead! I am still recovering, seeing doctors on a Monthly basis. Show less
