Additionally, I learned how to properly mop a floor and quickly reach multiple destinations by car--without the assistance of a smartphone or satellite aided navigation. (It was 1996.) And I earned the right--once and for all--to tell others that at 18 years of age, I began my career as a professional driver. Show less
