After graduation, Booker returned to Cairo where he worked for the Community Network Services (CNS) as a cable technician. During his tenure at CNS, he engaged in conversations with many residents in their homes, and he listened to their goals and dreams. Their "up close and personal" dialogues inspired him to build his platform. He resigned from his position at CNS and announced his bid to run for the city's highest office. Community outreach is important to Mr. Gainor, and he has spearheaded and participated in many events designed to support members of the community, especially the youth, including back to school supply drives, turkey giveaway, community Easter egg hunts, and community health fairs.
