Her mother was rather disappointed to find that "Max" was a bit of a tomboy who would much prefer to climb trees and tinker with things in her father's garage then learn to sew and bake. Mother even worried that she might never find a husband, as she didn't have a boyfriend all through high school. But shortly after, while taking classes at the local university Pleasant U, she met Joe Haggarty. The two were crazy about each other, and had a lot in common. They were married after a whirlwind courtship. When the war broke out, Joe enlisted and was sent overseas. Though the couple wanted children someday, they hadn't a chance to have any yet. Maxine didn't want to just sit at home and grow a victory garden, so she started factory work. Everyone, even her mother, praised her for her bravery in 'doing her part' - but it was more than just patriotism for Max. She really enjoyed her job. When her husband was killed in battle, Max was devistated. She threw herself into her work and became a bit of a recluse. She was afraid to get close to anyone lest she lose them too. At work she had a reputation for getting the job done- and being able to fix just about anything that went wrong on the line. She was promoted to shift suprivisor. Most of the factory workers were happy for her, but some few bad eggs were resentful that a woman should tell them what to do. They make an occasional bit of trouble. Max has always hoped she'd be promoted further, but that doesn't seem likely to happen- especially with those troublemakers trying to make her look less competant than she actually is. ==== Mindset ==== Determined, hard-working, and serious. Max is a loyal friend, but may take some time to warm up to you. She likes to tinker with things, and can wield a mean tool. ==== Quirks ==== Sometimes tucks a tool behind her ear when she's working. More likely to be seen wearing dungarees than a skirt, except at church on Sunday. Sometimes talks to Joe when she's alone "Well, Joe-- this is a fine mess we've got here...". ==== Housing ==== Lives in the modest home her and Joe owned. She keeps it in good repair. ==== Possessions ==== house older but in good repair car extensive toolkit welding torch soddering iron picture of her husband she carries in her wallet wears both her husband's and her own wedding rings on a chain around her neck a cat name Ozzie ==== NPC Relationships ==== Ozzie the cat (named after the tv show The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet) Her sister-in-law June (Haggerty) Caine, with whom she is good friends. June is married and has a little girl. Her own brother and sister, Tim and Kathy Willferd. Kathy is an unmarried home-ec teacher at the local high school. Tim is married and has two sons.
