Yeah OK ya got me - ahem - Employee #

I was hired at Tulsa '63 - took unit record training at Rodchester MN - other schools at San Jose (the palace in the cornfield) New York (town famous for it's shoe factory - I forget the name just now) White Plains of course - watched the Moon landing there while back for another school while stationed in Viet Nam- New Orleans and others - my God we traveled. Then off to Asia in 66 assigned to MACV - spent 4 years there.

Out to Yankee Station 5 times - I do love being catapulted off a Carrier.

There were around 200 of us at the peak (including FSD - Federal Systems Division - we still get together in Vegas from time to time)

Endicott. Went there for my first class in January of 1979. It was the last class there; marketing training was moved to Poughkeepsie.

I loved working for IBM, but, as I look back, I didn't realize how little money I was making in exchange for "job security" and the prestige of working for Big Blue.

Gotta be Endicott... the shoe plant was in Johnson City -- ergo, Endicott-Johnson Shoes. Spent a month at the Endicott plant one week. Been to Rochester, MN during a snow storm. I owned three 4381s in Charlotte at one time, we got rid of those and got five AS/400s (from a B50 to an F95) to play with.

Those were the days... doing "e-mail" on PROFS well before Lotus Notes came on the scene.
