My name is Tony C. Hughes of Newark, N.J. I was born in October of 1955. I have three sisters that I am very close to. From these sisters I have 2 nieces. My mother pasted in 1986, but my father is still kicking at 70 plus. He’s remarried to a young lady not to much old then I. He’s retired from his life work of carpenter but is now working for the City of Newark as a watchmen and dispatch man in Sanitation. I’m now in my second marriage with thirteen years in, with two kids. I also have three other kids with two other mothers. In my work life I would say and have been told that I’m a workaholic. Reasoning I believe for this type of behavior is due to the ethic past on to me from my patent and that I believe to fulfill my purpose I must work towards it, plus working kept me out of trouble. The following are some of the jobs I’ve worked over my years: Shoe shinning, working at corner store, yard cleaning, store runner, bagboy at Supermarket, stock boy at supermarket, assident to the supertendent in aptment complex, gas station helper, chasher, dish washer, waiter, carpenter helper, carpenter tradesman, and the list can go on The key thing is I did what ever work came my way. During my time in the military I also had many jobs, and took advantage of any training they offered to add to my skill bank. I left the Marine Crop with seven years active service as an E-6 pay grade, Staff Sergeant with about two years time in grade. I now work for the City of Newark as the Coornator of Motor vehicle Services (Fleet Manager). This is my sconed post with the City; my first was general supervisor over the City Board-up crew. Our job was to keep both City and private abandoned properties closed up and area clean.Over my years of working , I have found that I take ownership of the work I did and I get more then just compensation for it I get experience, knowledge and more awareness of the bigger picture, I became within myself an Entrepreneur. As an Entrepreneur I present to the work market a product that out shines and improves products already on hand, me. I believe that all I do is leading towards my purpose in life. We all have a purpose and we all must find what that is but in the finding many things in our joury will prepare us to fulfill that end. The moment of our days are always changing showing us some new teachings. I except these moments, add them to my past to build for that next moment, next opportune to fill my purpose.With my purpose I have responsibility to my family, friends, associates and community. Ultimately I have a responciliy to God. To die full with all the talents he has placed in my path, but die empty of all gifts I can put into the world.In closing, I can’t put all of me on these pages. These pages are only to introduce me to you. An invitation to you to join me on the search to find the entrepreneur in each other to present to the world.
