Reply to "How you got started in the Industry?"

I had been working on computer periferals (keypunch, verifiers, etc) for IBM and had a falling out with my manager about their conservative dress code and IBM rah, rah.
Couldnt take my jacket off in a customers office, even if you were pulling a greasy shaft out of a collator, white long sleeve shirts.
so anyway it was 1969 and I applied to a now extinct company called Copystatics and the service manager hired me and explained how the copier worked and I took to it like I always new it.It just made perfect sense. In a month I was teaching copier theory and basic electronis classes to new techs and ones that had been there for a while.
In 1972 I came to work for my present employer and that was just about the time that plain paper copiers were popping up all over the place. The rest is history.
