I used to be a computer programmer/data analyst working for a very small company in Santa Barbara, California. Through a rather odd series of events, I wound up in an entirely different career, and now I am a forklift operator, working for a very big, very old, very famous company, at their facility in Sacramento. This company is so famous that I don't even need to tell you it's name. We make several lines of products, but we are most famous for soup. Think of the very first brand of canned soup that comes to mind. Yes, *THAT* company!

Strange as it seems, I now find that my new profession suits me much better than my old one did. When I was a professional computer geek, I never would have thought I could tolerate—much less enjoy—working in such a “menial” profession, and I would have thought it beneath myself to even consider it. It took some very drastic and difficult changes in my life to force me in this direction, but now that I am here, I am quite glad that it happened.
