Occasionally memories of the early days of my first career in the RCAF pop into my mind, some fond, others not so much. It was a wonderful learning experience with great camaraderie however at times during long sorts, collations or tabulations things could get pretty boring. It did however set the stage for a great career in the IT world.
There was a lot to learn and to this day I remember useless bits of information and numbers such as 7 3⁄8 by 3 1⁄4 inches, 402, 083, 077, 519, 088, 407.
