Back when they broke up the Bell System, we were given a choice between staying with the local Bell systems and providing local service, or going with ATT and competing for long distance service with MCI, after a law suit that broke up the monopoly on phone service. Sounds like your Dad chose AT&T. Based on the location you discribed, I'm guessing he worked in the central office, at 120th and Washington. There was also a garage location there so he may have been an outside tech. Those were good times.That's messed up! My Dad worked for Mountain Bell, which somehow turned into AT&T sometime when I was a teenager [around 120th North, and something]. And my older brother [an original computer geek
Any relation to the Jung seed people? That catalog means spring will be here, sooner or later.That's messed up! My Dad worked for Mountain Bell, which somehow turned into AT&T sometime when I was a teenager [around 120th North, and something]. And my older brother [an original computer geek
I originally worked for N.Y. Telephone, and transferred to Denver in 1975 when we were all facing layoffs on the East Coast. Since we were all AT&T at that time, the Bell System offered to pick up the tab to transfer us where they needed us, rather than lay us off. Most of the folks were Viet Nam era vets, and being a Union job, we were the one's facing layoffs, since they hadn't hired since WW11. Seniority dictated back then.
Although the name doesn't ring a bell, I'm sure our paths crossed at one time or another. Later in my career I went into management in contract administration, and had interaction with most departments.Well, then it's possible that you and my dad may have had some interaction back in the day. I know, big company [AT&T], but you never know.
Doesn't sound familiar, sorry.
