From Construction to Admin (Score 2, Interesting)

As for me, I just lucked out really, was working construction, my best friend was doing webpage design, in the evenings after I got off work, I'd hang out at the ISP he worked for and help out with whatever, when I got laid off of my construction job, the ISP offered me a position on the spot. 4 years and 3 positions later, I'm now working as network admin in the cable modem industry.
