Let start with your clan name? >XI<Intruder - I used to play ww2 combat flight sims is where that name was born.

    Do you have any nicknames? Personal or in game? Some call me Bull - long story but deep down probably just because im stubborn. And clumsy lol

    When and where were you born? Old guy, 1972 In Middletown Ohio

    When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? I never figured it out and still working on that answer.

    Where have you lived? I have lived in Ohio my entire life, not much of a traveler  but i now reside in New Madision, Ohio only about 30 minutes from where i grew up. Worldly i know.     

    What got you into gaming? Been a gamer since i was young but the people and the adventures kept me logging back in. 

    Your first game you played? First game was a atari but fast forward to the PC world it was FIghter Ace the combat flight sim i mentioned back in 1996 :D

    And what do you play now? Mostly DayZ Standalone, myself and a few XI members host 3 servers. I quit gaming for a few years except for every Sunday i would play cod4 with XI for a few hours. XI servers always had me looking forward to that free time on Sundays.

    Why did you join XI? I officially joined recently in late 2022 maybe ? im not sure i have been part of this group so long im not sure when i actually joined.  

    What do you get from being in this clan? I have made some good friends with alot of XI members and we continue to stay in touch when possible.

    What is your favorite hobby? modding has always been the root hobby i always come back to. I have alot going on with a small hobby farm but i am always thinking of modding servers or games. 

    What is your favorite travel destination? My back yard, i have some acreage and a pool. everything i need is at home so why travel. I'm just not drawn to far off lands.

    Are you married? Yes

    Do you have children? One Son who is grown and gone off to make his mark on the world at 22

    What kind of pets do you have, if any? What are their names? No pets and we don't name our food 

    Do you volunteer? If so, where? I do volunteer some times, I have a emergency communication group < Ham Radio > that we volunteer for events and disaster clean up. 

    What is an interesting fact about you? Sorry, I'm not very interesting. I work most of the time on something either outside or in the virtual world. 


    Have you continued your education past college or university with career development seminars or classes? What kind? I spent 30 years in the labor pool as a Heavy Diesel Mechanic and later switched over to the management side and have been developing my career in that direction. That has taken me into alot of focused learning classes provided by my employer.

    What is your current job title? Automotive Supervisor i manage 5 shops .

    Where do you work? UPS

    Why did you choose to work in your industry? Being a mechanic came easy to me as i grew up on a farm. It started as a side gig to pay the bills while farming was slow and then became more stable at the time so i made a decision for a weekly paycheck.

    Why do you like your job? I am lucky to have a good career, so many people right now struggle with the day to day.

    How would you describe your career? A never ending story of evolution, from the time i started to current are completely different.  I am always hungry to learn something new.

 

    Describe a time that your career was rewarding. If its not rewarding why do it, i have always had a deep appreciation for the opportunity's I was given and feel a sense of gratification for the work completed.

    If you could give a younger person career advice, what would it be? Stay fluid, so many people get left behind as they age. New technology is coming at you every year. Embrace Change. If your Comfortable where your at your not going anywhere. Step out side your comfort zone to grow your self.

 

    What is a valuable lesson you learned in your career? Never think you to important to be replaced.

    What do you hope to accomplish in your career? Retirement some day healthy and on my terms

 

    What is your favorite sport? Baseball

    Do you play any sports? I used to play A league softball but the ole knees gave up that ghost on that one.

    If you were granted 1 wish, what would you wish for? I would wish for more wish's lol. Nothing really comes to mind I'm so appreciative of my family and friends, as well as my XI friends and i wouldn't change a thing. Well except those few times I  ...  nvm that's another story.

We just named our animals we planned to eat "Dinner", it bothered our Mom the first time but she figured out she wanted to call it something at feeding time and by calling the Steer each year Dinner kept her from getting to attached and more grounded in the reality of the money the family spent to but it, feed it and keep it healthy and well as the grain we gave it at the end to marble it up. It all worked out and in the mid 70's with 3 teenage boys it was the most bang for our food budget plus we knew the quality of the meat and that it was grass fed and well taken care of and treated in the most humane way possible. Advantage of having 45 acres of grassy ranch land in the foothills of Northern California in the mid 70's. Plus we had horses and even raised a Pig and the property next to my parents Ranch was 5000 acres of BLM land so the deer were also plentiful and in our freezer. Calif had a nuisance law that allowed farmers and ranchers with fenced property to kill deer that got in to their vegetable garden so ours was growing 10 months a year. This gave my Dad the right to remove them and harvest them. Any way to save money and keep us from going hungry. I can relate to your comment about CHANGE. It is the only constant thing in life and something that is hard to fight. When we stop learning is when our brains start to die and then our body follows. Nice read and you are always welcome to play on the COD2 TDM servers. We play every weekend from about 9am your time until 1pm Saturday and Sunday and it is the same group with many long time >XI< members. We always love meeting newer members to the Original >XI< servers where it all started and killing them lol. Look forward to seeing you sometime soon. If you dont have the game I have a few copies of the game you can load using a disk drive including a good key code I could send you from free since I now use Steam, but the game is fairly cheap there as well. just using the version 1.3 so you have to update it after you download. DM me if you are interested
