Jim Bender on Jobs

Member of three labor unions

The oldest of six children, Jim and his brothers and sisters all learned the importance of cooperation and hard work, Jim had his first paper route at eight years old, and through grade school and high school he worked in a butcher shop, as a stock boy, a janitor in a hospital, a cook, a lumberjack and as a construction worker. By his college years he had been a member of three labor unions. Jim knows a lot about what makes our country work, and the views, problems, and needs of our citizens.
