Worked mostly in various construction industry roles around the Polk County, FL area. Worked in roles that included work as an electrician’s helper and laborer focused on residential and commercial electrical installation, troubleshooting, and repair with some local electrical contractors, multiple assembly line roles doing mobile home construction and finishing mobile homes (from floor construction to roof construction and everything little detail in-between which could include things such as electrical fuse box, electrical lighting and electrical outlet installation, appliance installation, interior painting, quality control checks, and last minute touch-ups) with Fleetwood Homes and Homes of Merit, new home construction worker and laborer with some local contractors, sheet metal worker at a local sheet metal shop, and countertop cutting and preparation with a local countertop manufacturer among other roles. There were a few roles held during this time that were not directly construction related such as an assembly line worker at an International Paper plant that produced corrugated cardboard boxes, as a telemarketer seeking donations for what was claimed to be a local “Fireman’s Association” (still doubtful of the legitimacy of that place to this day), and as a selector in food cold storage warehouse.
