Introducing: Project 1/2-TRAK

[Damn True]

Just the act of using my hands to alter something tangible is, I'm finding, very rewarding. I spent eleven years as a helo mechanic and air crewman in the Coast Guard. I'd show up to the air station and a couple helo's would be broken and by the time I headed home stuff was fixed. Very satisfying.

But for the last eight years I've been in Marketing Communication. The work I do now oftentimes does not produce a measurable result for months. Sometimes the result is immeasurable and it's rarely if ever something tangible that I can see and feel like "I made that."
