It’s also from “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.” I’m aware a lot of Wonka’s quotes come from other sources.

Jobs rebounding is in the headlines — a favorite job you’ve held in life, and why.

1. Paperboy for the Hartford Courant, by 0630 Mon-Sat, and by 0830 Sun. For $8 a week, about 35 papers on my route in early to mid 1970s, I learned at an early age that you show up each and every day, rain or snow or ice, or summer vacations or holidays.

7. US Marine. I ended up reenlisting a few times and it helped pay for college. The older I get the more grateful I am to have served. And, small-unit leadership courses, and later the Staff NCO Academy, taught me valuable management skills that have been useful in the tech industry.
