lippy 918 #1 October 27, 2009 .............now I'm WISE Today was my first day with the Wireline Interactive Support Engine. Now instead of running around Latin America trying to fix and maintain equipment, I'll be supporting the field guys from a desk here in Ft. Worth. It's gonna be a helluva lot different working from a desk, but there's a good crew here and my new boss has been my friend and mentor for the past 5 years. I'm hoping that the slow pace of the desk job won't drag me down, but my co-workers are mostly Canadian like me, and while they're serious about their work they keep it light-hearted and joke around when possible. They chipped in and got me an 'extra' nameplate that I found on my office door this morning.I got nuthin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lippy 918 #4 October 27, 2009 My new manager put it there. A guy we used to work with a few years ago called everybody a knob, as in 'dumb as a...', and it caught on between us. Apparently there was a real one that says 'Roger Archibald - WISE Engineer' but it disapeared. It'll appear again before the country manager makes his next roundsI got nuthin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
