Husband and father of 3, that's my best job

Secondly;

Own my own business! Hobbico~! Back in October 2005, all us employees were awarded with ownership of Hobbico. Previous owners did not want to see the company torn apart by some unknown who did not understand the industry, so they sold it to us!

http://www.towerhobbies.com/rcwnews/051130-hobbico-esop.html

All of us at Hobbico are very, very blessed to become owners of the company. Anybody new starting with Hobbico, after 1 year, also has this same opportunity. You would not believe what a difference this makes. Most everybody in the company has a changed outlook. Most want the best product, best customer service, the best company in the industry, plus the work ethic is improving everyday, it is really awesome!

Personally what I do; for the last 15+ years I have been a Product Manager in the r/c industry;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_management

There is nothing better to develop product that you know will be a lot fun for a customer/family. I have countless memories when I was a kid and building and enjoying the hobby. Knowing you are responsible in making the enjoyment the best it can be is very rewarding.

Very lucky to make my life-long love for the hobby my career and my life, and now my business.

Have fun!

Hello all,

I'm stupid enough to own an OEM stainless marine hardware manufacturing business with 60 children(employees). I guess,chief cook & bottle washer you could say.Actually,I'm quite fortunate,I'ts a great business but have been at it for 28 years.It just didn't do it by itself that's for sure.

And, it sure keeps me in toys,so I shouldn't complain.

Very high stress job! That's the down side.

The toys are the escape from madness.
