Skip Combs, Facilities Manager

Voicemail Extension:

212

Hometown:

San Juan Capistrano, CA

Family Info:

I am married to a pretty lady in the accounting office. She pays bills for CBC and her name is Carol. She has a little Yorkie dog named Tulip at home that allows me to live there too.

How did you come to CBC?

After Carol and I retired, we planned to move out of Southern California. Through a set of miraculous circumstances orchestrated by God we moved to SJC and became a part of the CBC family.

What is your role at CBC?

With my partner Bill Wyatt, I help watch over the facilities. Between the two of us we have a wide range of experience which helps us keep not only the old converted bowling alley in shape, but all the other surrounding facilities owned by CBC.

What is the best part about your role?

Between the Green House, portables, the Red Door, apartments, Brightwater condo, Calle Winona house, grass and dirt lots, as well as the old bowling alley, the challenges are unlimited; and that is the best part of the job.

If you were a color, what color would you be?

I would be the color of water over the reefs surrounding tropical islands; because the things that live there are beautiful and the water is warm and comfortable.

What do you count as the greatest invention of the last 100 years?

Duct tape is the greatest invention in the last 100 years because you can fix almost anything with it.

What is your favorite place on the earth?

Standing on the shore of a lake in the High Sierras at 10,000 feet, casting a fly line.

What makes you laugh?

Carol's dog barking at her because she won't get up and take her for a walk.

What makes you cry?

People or animals being abused.

If you could be on any reality television show, which one would it be?

The only thing I watch on TV is news, sports and the history channel. I think if I were going to be in any movie, I would have liked to have be ena mountain man like Robert Redford in "Jeremiah Johnson."
