lol,
Why don't you just kick her in the head and get it over with.... :)
I have had nothing but problems with the MMR and NextGen, but I am starting to work the kinks out.
What loon set up a perfect excuse for a BBQ on a Wednesday?
I know - it should be on a Monday just like all the other holidays I don't get a day off for.

Have you tried the 9610 yet? Apparently, someone left a few characters out of the program, and the output power has to be done manually..
I just wish the engineers would run this stuff before publishing the procedures..
Ah well, 12 years to social security
Mike
well shoot no T shirt!!!! My last company charged us for the Metrology day T shirt and it was only $12.95!!!!!
Aw, that means we have to shut down at noon on a WEDNESDAY and BBQ? Rats! Oh well, we will be cookin on Friday as well, heh.
Just a sidenote though...... Kinda copied and pasted from their page..

I thought that was pretty funny too. Kind of an unfortunate choice of acronyms, silly metrologists...
Enough about that, I have to get back to work at the American Institute for Design Standards...
Yeah, and I'll see you next week at the monthly Precision Measurement Society meeting. . .
My boss said to go ahead and go out to lunch that day and charge it on my card!!!SWEET!!
Then he went on to tell me that he would not be reimbursing me ahhh welll just like every other time!!!
Yeah, and I'll see you next week at the monthly Precision Measurement Society meeting. . .

Hard to say, didn't you check the Constantly Revised Appointment Postings?

Damn I'm going to miss that one and the next one too. I'm attending class for the next 2 months on the "Dynamic Understanding of Metrology Basics And Simple Statistics". Then I have to return to my full time job as the "Director Of Product Enhancements" for YoyoDyne.

Both are the biggest piece of Junks the Air Force has bought/made that I know. . .
Ohh forgot about the fabulous 9610
Happy World Metrology Day everyone!
I am still waiting on last year's Tee Shirt...
Whoooo Hooooooo!
Happy WMD!!!
Now get back to work.
Happy World Metrology Day to all the calibrators out there! Make sure you measure something today!
What? We don't get the day off? Or at least the aforementioned absent t-shirt? Anyway, happy World Metrology Day.
I'll be measuring the amount of time required to consume a 16 ounce beverage...may take a few attempts to check for repeatability. Happy day!
In honor of the fabulous day:
