    For someone who's been here since 2008 and only has 327 posts...When you write, it is rare...and what you wrote, is profound. lol

    BTW, I'm a Logistics Guy.

    25 years as active duty Materials Management in the USAF--retired in 2011.

    Currently at my 8th civilian job assignment (Surgical Materials) since retiring...and it's the longest tenured--6years!

    Noteable mention...worked for the Boeing Company for 2.5 years supporting the QF-16 Program before getting this hospital gig.
