I was job shopping, kind of like gig work today. I was working a 2-week job at TRW out at Kennedy Space Center. Two weeks 
turned into 2 months and in the end, they offered me a job I couldn’t turn down. I was thrilled to worked at Kennedy Space Center for almost 5 years, Space shuttles and rockets launches were very exciting.
