Jensen was facing massive layoffs so I polished up my resume' to cover my bases. I knew the president of Ranger recently became the CEO at Islander so I stopped there first. Two weeks later I was an Islander employee doing the same thing as I did at Jensen. Within a year I was a purchasing agent in a two man office. The other PA and I originally met at Columbia/Coronado several years prior when he worked the stockroom and I was on the assembly line. He remains a friend to this day, 40 years later.
