        @scotth I started off on this crazy journey as an electronics tech, spent everyday using a cro of some description.

        i can remember one time, i really wanted to work in the r&d area of this company where I worked, they were looking for a junior tech/engineer & I really wanted the position.

        I got the spot and I still remember day 1. They sat a huge Techtronix cro on my bench, this thing had more buttons and knobs that anything. I reckon it took me 10 minutes to find the on/off switch.

        It is so 'Star Trek'. I can imagine how intimidating it would have been. The more switches and buttons, the better.

        I was extremely fortunate in my young life to be hired as a corporate flight attendant. I was cabin crew on an executive airliner -- BAC 1-11 401AK.

        I was permitted to help with maintenance, preflight, attend training. The boys would teach me how the systems worked on the airplane. And yes, I have sat in the right seat during flight.

        I quit college and landed this job through sheer luck. Although college would have benefitted me orders of magnitude more than this job.

        I can honestly say that I don't regret the opportunity. I was 19 and would sit in the jump seat during any/all operations of flight. I lost that job when I was 27. An entirely other lifetime ago. Dare I say that I'm 62 now?

        Major geek moments!

        Awesome stories! But... Maybe I should get off your lawn now?

        Hahahahaha. No stay there, I'll bring the mower over & you can be useful.

        As long as it's one of them new fandangled ones with the batteries. Me and the mechanic ones just don't get along. (Read: I get tired of yanking the chain to get it to start).

          Breakfast with @CCWTech

          Then we are going over to check out the new restaurant facility that we got last night. It's only a lease for this one, but we are opening as fast as we can move in tables!!

          That is diversifying your portfolio for certain...

          Just a bit!

          I thought you were an IT guru, not a wannabe Conrad Hilton?????

          I do everything šŸ™‚

                              The phone system is broken,.. Calls aren't being routed as the system believes we are off hours. Nothing points as to why -

                              And Surprise - Vendor shows up to do work that we knew nothing about.

                              And we have a person out -
