How would you describe your time at Fox Sports Net?
Great ! I free lanced as a MCO until they moved the operation to Texas. Even though I was factory trained on Harris Automation (Louth) and recruited to work for Harris, Fox Sports Net wouldn't let me touch it and give the Fox tech crew pointers on it. I guess someone was insecure about their job. hahaha...

Great to work there! I still get residuals to this day from being "talent" on the show. Being SAG & AFTRA, before I started helped. I just came from IBM as a Customer Engineer fixing computer systems. I was amazed to see that people get paid big bucks for making TV shows.

How would you describe your time at Long Beach City College?
