I went to GMI (General Motors Institute – the General’s own college for training engineers and managers) so with my engineering degree, combined with my assembly plant experience, I could pretty much write my own ticket.
After I had transitioned from the assembly plant into an engineering/assembly liaison position, management came around looking for volunteers to move to Arizona. We often vacationed out there growing up and I thought it would be a cool place to live and work, so I raised my hand.
Upon further review they decided I should have some development experience before moving out there so they assigned me to the Milford Proving Ground first. I ended up staying at Milford for three years (’86-’89) and then at the Desert Proving Ground for four (’90-’94).
