OK Break's Over...

FINALLY! Something meaningful!

"Help Desk."

Hopefully THIS one won't be shipped off to India in 3-4 years! (Actually,
they are coming back...paying low wages for phone answerers who then have
to pass the call to a higher paid Tech Expert isn't cutting it, I guess...)

Start Monday, over what I have ever made for a wage before! (If Hamilton
Statndard hadn't krapped out, I'd probably be up to about $20 an hour now,
but...)

I'm happy about this news. You've become one of the contributors whose
postings I highlite to the top of the Articles window.

I must ask: Is/was Hamilton Standard the timepiece company?

HEY f***er, Your f***ing software totally f***ed up my computer. My f***ing
mouse won't work! I wanna speak to your f***ing manager! I'm gonna sue!

I figured taking my f***ing mouse out of the f***ing fishbowl would help
but it f***ing didn't, so it must be your f***ing program that f***ed up my
computer!

...but "zulu" doesn't mean phonetic "z", does it? "Zulu" means "the
time in the zone originating at the Prime Meridian", formerly called
"geenwich 'mean' time" but now called "universal time" and represented
graphically -- *not* phonetically -- by the letter "Z. "Zeebra" is
phonetic letter-"z". When did zeebra become zulu and why would it have?
Their meanings certainly are not interchangable and confusion between a
letter and a time zone can endanger a ship or aircraft and her crew.
When I was in the Nav during Lying Lyndon's War -- at least in
voice telephone and radio (what I did) communications -- "zulu" meant
"letter-Z" *only* in direct reference to the time zone. It meant
absolutely nothing else and was spoken in absolutely no other context in
order to avoid any possibility of confusion. "Zulu", as well as
"silence", "wait", "repeat", and "figures", was a reserved word because
it had a very specific meaning within a very specific context and/or
very narrow set of circumstances (for example, "repeat" means "when
ready, fire a another salvo just like the last one at the same target";
"silence" means "everyone on this network except God MUST shutup and
listen to me because failure to do say may sink the ship") and any other
useage was inappropriate, misleading and could endanger a ship or
aircraft and her crew. "Zulu" definitely was NOT the so-called
"phonetic" pronunciation of the letter "Z"! To this day, I don't use
"silence" and "repeat" in conversation and rarely use "wait" without
following it with a spoken numeral; old habits, I guess.... For example,
in any voice communication, I'd have spoken, "zeebra, echo, bravo,
romeo, alpha" to spell the word but would have spoken 4PM, GMT as "time
sixteenhundredzulu", period; "zeebra" and "zulu" were not
interchangable. Why would that have changed? Certainly, as long as
there ships at sea with guns or aircraft aloft with guns or that can be
shot at, the reasons for the differentiation -- or for reserved words,
in general -- remain, eh?

Best known for the propellor on the Spirit of St. Louis, and the largest
mfg of props for planes during WWII (if you wantch the History Channel or
Discovery Wings, look for a red/gold 'football' on the props. That's
Hamilton Standard)

We did fuel/engine controls, analog and Digital, and various control boxes
for a wide range of civilian and military aircraft. Very intereting place
to work.

LOL! That's going to be tough, as they use the same ISP as I do, so I have
ready access to the News Server! ;)

Been there, done that, got the flame retardant undies!

Man, people call you up (not qa LOT, but enough!) to bitch at YOU because
their computer screwed up in the middle of a 120 sheet spread sheert, etc.
I let them rant, then sooth them and solve the problem. Not tough!

When I first started at GE, my secod week, a woman called up; wanted 5
laptops, a full compliment of software on each, Targus bags, cell phones,
etc etc etc. Then she says, this is for Gary Powers' team....

OK...

Who's Gary Powers?

You don't know?

I just started here...

He's the PRESIDENT of Plastics!!!

Oooooops...

When I can into work after the weekend, there was a list of ALL the wheels
on everybody's desks...

Oooooops....
