Experience: Store and district Manager for Walmart stores and Montgomery Ward.

I was a district manager for Montgomery Ward in Pittsburgh, PA in 1990 when some executives from Walmart were in the area reviewing Walmart stores when they also reviewed some of the Montgomery Ward stores I was responsible for and decided to invite me to Bentonville, AR and meet Mr. Sam (Sam Walton) and to be interviewed by their HR executives. I was hired a few days later.
