Why I decided to take on an outside job:

I dropped out school at the third year of high-school because this school here is not good. But I "ate" books for breakfast. One day I read a book by Peter Drucker (Drucker, P., Managing in Turbulent Times, New York, Harper & Row, 1980)and I thought I should go around a bit.

In my book I wrote:

"The so-called answers to the global concurrence are nothing less than the industrialized countries running for cover.

Author Peter Drucker in his book (Drucker, P., Managing in Turbulent Times, New York, Harper & Row, 1980) put it very clear: “The developed countries can only hope to maintain their standard of living, their standard of education, their leadership position, if they put to work productively the only resource in which they have a distinct advantage: their ability to keep young people in school for long years and to qualify them for knowledge work...For the standard of living of the developed world can also be maintained only if it succeeds in mobilizing the labor resources of the developing world...”

COMMENTS: I thought, no one of those idiots are putting me to work for them. I am going out and going do my own thing. So I did. For 18 years.
Started as microwave tower rigger. Then Auxiliar of the technicians. After Technician. Then Engineer. And today they can call me whatever they want provided they pay my invoice at month's end.
