I started with Southern Bell out of downtown Miami in 1965. Graduated on Friday and started to work on Monday. Testing was done on my Easter break. We all knew that the people being drafted from AT&T (Bells) would have their jobs when they came home. I have not always liked some of their policies but this one was stellar as far as I’m concerned. I worked a non traditional job and when these guys came back with all their military training in communications, I always considered them to be so far advanced, even with all our Bell Labs training. I really enjoyed seeing the promise made in writing as you have posted. Ty for you and your Dad’s service ☎️
