Lucky break

(TEXT FROM SOUND BITE)

"I had come back from my travels and I was broke so what I did was I worked at a gas station pumping gas.

"This friend of mine came through and he said, ‘Do you want a summer job that pays a little bit more money?" He got his dream job and couldn't take this summer job at the Manitoba Developmental Centre. A couple of days later this lady phoned and said, ‘Would you like to be a psychiatric nurse's aid? We'll train you.'

"After doing that for a couple of summers, I decided to actually go to university and take psychiatric nursing."
