     Other Work Experience

I have further work experience in Spain and the UK but I have not included these jobs in this resume because they are not related to my Home Improvement career.

From time to time I needed a break from the building business and took non related jobs. If you ever had some builders, remodelers working at home ... then you know what I mean :-) don't you?. I have only posted my last 10 years of work experience.
