Don Shorock's work history

In the fall of 2006, I retired from regular employment, although I still do some free-lance web design.

From 1980 to 2006, I worked at the Great Bend Employment and Training Office (a.k.a. the Job Service and most recently as the One-Stop Career Center) as the job training specialist. The office was run by the Kansas Dept. of Human Resources and then the Kansas Dept. of Commerce. I administered the JTPA training programs in Barton, Rush, Ness, Pawnee, and Rice Counties. (At various times, I had also been the representative for Russell, Stafford, Pratt, Barber, Comanche, Kiowa, Hodgeman, and Ford Counties.) The JTPA programs were funded by the Employment and Training Administration of the U.S.Department of Labor .

From 1977 to 1980, I was news director of KVGB radio in Great Bend, Kansas.

From 1970 to 1976, I was a social studies and speech teacher at Cunningham High School in Cunningham, Kansas.
From 1969 to 1970, I taught English, speech, and social studies at Santa Fe Trail High School in Overbrook, Kansas.
From 1968 to 1969, I taught English and speech at Hamilton High School in Hamilton, Kansas.
From 1964 to 1973, I worked each summer as a travel counselor for the Esso/Humble/Exxon Touring Service in Rockefeller Center in New York City.
