EMPLOYMENT
Parts Delivery Driver
Nevada Brake and Auto

I took this position simply to get away from the next listed position.  I needed to get away from the 12hr driving shifts that are required and the money that was once there had dwindled away.  This position is stable and I only work 40hrs a week so I can take a 2nd position.  Twice I've been Driver of the Month.  Main educational benefit of this job:

Las Vegas Strip Taxi Driver
Yellow-Checker-Star Taxi Cabs and Desert Cab Co.

Talk about a wild ride - when I first took this position all the gentlemens clubs where in a price war over who would pay the cabbies the most to get the most customers!   I could pick-up 5 guys and cash in on $300 in one ride, some cab drivers where earning six figures. But like all dreams this all came to an end.

Self Employed R&D and Electronic Repair - Sole Proprietor Business Owner
Sams Electronics (took over my fathers business)

At the time I took over this business the big screen TV business was snow balling with many brands having models that would break down after a couple years, sometimes a few months, and with the cost of repairs far less than replacing, I mainly repaired big screen TV's via a yellow pages ad.  In between calls I did some R&D on my own.  The business became more and more unprofitable as manufacturers that once provided me work stopped assisting me due to the fact I was a "home business" with no store front and I didn't feel that it was a good decision at the time to expand.  Responsibilities included:
