Job: Store Directory at Staples. They are to cheap to have a sicgn put up, so they hang me from the ceiling, and I point in the direction of the various merchandise. :) Seriously though, I do pretty much every job there, sometimes simultaneously. To ensure that I have no free time, I am also in the Army Reserve.

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

I'm not in the army for the money, now. I have to get through college, and they're giving me a chance to go somewhere that I wouldn't get a chance to go, otherwise.

I'm a medical transcriptionist for an orthopaedic surgeon in Florida. I don't have an excuse as I like my job but I'm not too thrilled with the idea of someday developing carpal tunnel syndrome as a result of all the typing I do.

Nothing right now, but in the summer I work as a cashier in the gift shops of a local amusment park owned by Six Flags. A few days it got really hot, and the registers had all sots of problems, and a couple customers started whining about high prices, but it was a pretty good job anyway. Easier than high school. :)
Don't hate; appreciate!

RIP Eddie.
