In 1977 I was an accountant for the State of Texas in Austin. I was convinced by a friend that worked for Motorola that talking a pay cut and working longer hours would be the thing to do. I was young and impressionable. However, my decision to do just that provided me with an amazing and satisfying 25 year career.
I was with C&E from 1977-1984. I moved to the Paging division in mid 1984 and left in 2002. I lived in Austin, Texas, for my entire career. Fortunately, I was with Motorola when it was a fun and exciting company to work for. I’m not a good retired person so I’m ready to start a new challenge. Under promise and over perform…Exceed expectations! That’s what we lived by, and that’s what made the Motorola we worked for successful.
My wife Marcia and I still live in Austin. She plays golf (12 handicap) and I work part time with the University of Texas Sports Department to pay for her addiction. We do not have any children so we are spending their college tuitions.
