Man I did not have a clue, back then we just knew we wanted a job, was lucky to land a job with the State of Texas, and didn't realize that it would be my full career. It became my life and my passion. I have worked so many places in the State of Texas. I would have never knew.

I didn't know anything when I started, was dumb as a post, but stuck with it and retired at 37+ years, then worked for others outside of TxDot, but returned to Work for TxDot at the Lufkin District Office and finished 40yrs. I then began to work for TxDOT from the outside in Contracted to Txdot for 3 different Engineering firms, finished my last project in Trinity, Texas on an ADA project in 2014.
