Running all over the city fixing crap in an educational environment AND you have to drive your own car? Who in their right mind thought this was a good idea?

I'm sure they desperately want a diversity hire, but how many niggers are vaxen?

Yes, it was. Fortunately, none of my stuff cared what the date was. It simply ran tests on telco frames.

The best software engineers are thoughtful, thorough and proactive when possible. You made the grade!

Well...the stuff I was using wasn't my design, - the people who wrote it literally were dead or long retired. When I say this was legacy stuff, it truly was. Beautiful old equipment designed to outlive the war.

But I appreciate their design and try to use those tenets. The device did what is was programmed to do without using extra resources that had no bearing on the outcome of the device. Who cares what time of day it is, all I care about is the frogging circuits work.

So some poor dude at some company(s) you used to work for pre-2000 had to comb through your legacy code too? Lol! The Fall of 1999 had a lot of software guys griping.

I didn't change employers, just groups within the same company ... and all of my shit was still where I left it. In most cases, whatever custom code I had written needed no maintenance, and if they needed a new feature, they always seemed to find me even if I was working in another department. Quid Pro Quo among managers.
