I began my career back in the late 1970’s when small and mid-size companies were buying their first computer. It was an exciting time.
One of the things I remember most was the great fun we had at IBM amidst some very hard work and long hours. It was a great experience where I learned the value of “working hard and playing hard”.
You may be experiencing some of the best time of your career right now. You owe it to yourself to capture a few memories along the way.
Here are a few photos from my IBM days:

This is what it’s about, , , my two senior mentors who helped me so much in my early career are on both sides as I receive a Regional Manager’s Award.
Charles Carroll and Jim Cockerham influenced my career considerably and I’ll always owe them a huge debt of gratitude.
