I am a retired Electrical Engineer here in the Bahamas. I was employed by the Bahamas Electricity Corporation and was responsible for the Metering & the Traffic Signal Department. I am married and have 7, children. I live in the Bahamas but was born in Guyana. To understand Guyana at the time I was born, the social order was a Class System. I lived in an upscale area, Wortmanville, and was fortunate to grow up with a group of boys who were creative and competitive. Apart from the toys we got from our parents we made not only our own toys but we competed as well. I invented a number of things while working at B.E.C. but in attempting to put them on the market they were all stolen. I joined the Royal Regiment of Artillery (Costal Defense) at the time of World War 2. It was an experience that led me to choose Electrical Engineering as a career; we had to study the operation and maintenance of Diesel Engines, 1,000,000 Candle Power Searchlights and Switch Gear. I was promoted to the rank of Sergeant. At the end of World War 2 all the Police Forces in the caribbeanwere looking for World 2, Servicemen so I took the opportunity to joined the Bahamas Police. While serving on the Police Force I took decided to study Electrical Engineering by way of correspondence at the McKinley-Roosevelt Incorporated Institute. At the end of my contract with tthe Police Force I applied for a position at the Bahamas Electrical Corporation. I was put in charge of the Meter Test and Traffic Signal Department. I served the Corporation for 32, years at the time of my retirement. I am still living in the Bahamas. Vote for this safelist at SafelistRankings.com! a="22070";c="green";r="godbless";
