No, have never worked for them. But, something that you can and should take into consideration, especially if are just beginning - they would certainly make for a great resume' material. Unless you plan on starting out as a CEO right of the box, and such accomplishments are far and few between, you've got to start somewhere. Consider a strong reference vrs. a weak reference. You will work, because you're obviously not independantly wealty, and it will not be a hobby. You will do it because you have to, and the more money that you can make, the easier you'll be able to coast at the end. Strong resume' material, at least. When I first started out, after the military, I ended up in Chicago for the $$$ and resume' material, and started out near the bottom. A year of peanut butter sandwiches (at best) and a $5.00 pitcher of beer every other week for entertainment, if I scrounged it up and if the CUBS played at home (and I hate the CUBS), but now years later, that resume' material and lean times have paid off. Now I'm older, fatter, lazier, but I make a real good $ in Illinois, have a small place in Illinois during the week, and a small farm back home in Indiana, where I'll retire one day, paid for. Besides, even though I hate the CUBS, those young CUBBY chickies that lived in the old Wrigleyville neighborhood, sure were HOTTT, and made for some HOTTT times. All resume' material when you have to start somewhere.

They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
