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...)

Keep that job offer open! I might need it if EDS decides to cut people. |

Wish they'd bring that stuff back from India.
I just had a go-around with Symantec on an AV that keeps "unactivating"
itself.
Lady from India was nice enough, but her accent, those rolled R's, my
hearing aid, (and that choppy satellite connection), jeez.
You know the very best way to tell if they're really in India and not just
immigrants? Listen to how they give the alphabet in words. Most
Americans/Canadians will do it using common names they remember quickly:
JZBP: John Zebra Bob Peter
The India people are trained in official military alphabet:
JZBP: Juliet Zulu Bravo Papa
Listen carefully next time...

postings I highlite to the top of the Articles window.
I must ask: Is/was Hamilton Standard the timepiece company?

I figured taking my f***ing mouse out of the f***ing fishbowl would help

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. |
