From St. Louis, Missouri
In 1960 I moved to Phoenix, Arizona from St. Louis, Missouri. During my high school years in St. Louis I worked at my father’s service station. It was a great opportunity for me. I learned a lot about service and business and hoped one day I would have a station of my own.
When I arrived in Arizona I landed a job with Mobil Oil Company in a service station training facility. I worked four hours a day as a service station attendant and then spent another four hours per day attending a dealer-training program. I was elated and felt as though opportunity was knocking.
In 1962, Mobil Oil offered me a temporary job managing a service station at 16th Street and Osborn in Phoenix. I was anxious to demonstrate the knowledge and skills I learned while working for my father. Mobil was so pleased with the way I managed the station that they offered me the opportunity to become a dealer even though when I signed the lease I was only 20 years old. Eight days later I turned 21 and had to resign the contract. Mobil stated that I was the youngest dealer they had ever assigned a station.
