I was fortunate to have a patient man train me for a bit during my first few weeks at Mountain Bell. He was an old bugger named Bud Wheeler. A bit of an old hillbilly, 'cept when you got to know him. One day I came into the crew room to show Bud my new NASA approved space pen ($25). I says, "Look Bud, this pen can write upside down, under water, through grease, in freezing weather or hot on most any surface." He replies, "Yah Greg, I got one of those." I said, "No Bud, you can only get these through a special purchase." I was pretty sure that he just misunderstood me. Bud pulled from his overalls, from the front top pocket, a yellow #2 pencil. "See he says, It writes upside down or not, under water, through grease, and in any temperature too."
And THATS how I learn.
And THATS how I learn.
