I've been soldering for about 50 years, so I suspect I'm sufficiently

My first "job" in electronics was in the back room of my barber's shop
who had a little hobby business repairing electronics odds and ends. It
was where I learned how to solder. Especially after being told by one of
the barber's friends that I soldered like his grandmother That was in
1971. I was 16.
