The nightly production meeting was held and I had to get up and explain WTF had happened and how I fixed it. There was a grizzled old female first sergeant that didn't like my explanation as she knew everything.

That old b*tch! Based on what did she made that statement? Qualification? Experience? Under-the-table-friendship with some CE?

In the Army you weren't supposed to question (her) authority.


I had the 2 PLM's and gave them to her and told her in no uncertain terms that she had better fight with IBM then. Everybody in the room was shocked when I stood up to her.

Excellent. What happened then? Did IBM gave her a middle finger salute? That could be a good script for a horror movie! ;-)


No... I had to go up two floors to the commanding officer and explain it to him, which I did, but I used nicer language :)
