Tabaluga's

Yeah not sure what benefit that is having data centre in SA but yeah. Got enough power problems @ENKELI

@Glisten yes in middle of nowhere yet 2hrs fm my place .

@TAB my mum started with PMG in Geraldton, old plugs and cords. She also worked in South Australia and NSW before she got married, then had to quit work when she got married. Once dad took off with his mistress turned wife we returned to WA and mum went back to working at "the exchange" in Gero, then in Perth. She got redundancy in 1998 and had 30 years service. If I had stayed for another 18 months I would have had 20 years and received redundancy myself. Sometimes I kick myself that I left. No I didn't get fired for shooting rocket launchers at Optus satellites. They gave me a pay rise for that

😍 thanks @ENKELI

Yep @ENKELI

Enjoy your normal length weekend!

@TAB hey tabby, hope you're okay. Had some food. Going to friend's place in half an hour. Take care

Enjoy your outing @Meowmy lit fire here.sitting with cat

I used to ring switchboard person and talk @ENKELI vaguely knew them from pub.exchange would go to manual overnight was early 80s. Still had telegrams to late 80s lol

@TAB yep, telegrams and telex machines. My grandfather had a telex machine and as Khe Sahn says, the telex writer clattered. Constantly.

I remember when I first started with Telecom in 1991 we used faxes and dot matrix printers. And DOS based systems. Oh the good old days!
