Watches

[Cinder & Smoke]

I wear a watch constantly, and it drives me insane when I forget to.

Beware 'mechanics' wearing nice watches ......
they don't get their hands dirty.

I'm surprised your Uncle Sam even allows wrist watches around the
high-speed sorting machinery!

Mr. Watson (of IBM fame) had strict rules about
* NO wrist watches
* NO rings
* NO loose fitting necklaces
* NO around-the neck Neckties - Clip-On ties ONLY (Card readers could
. . *GRAB* a tie quicker than they could read a card! )
* Everyone wears safety glasses unless in an office
* Everyone wears safety shoes in the plant

When I switched to *fixin radios* - I quickly discovered RF energy and
High Voltage DC just loved to *JUMP* onto carelessly placed watches and
rings - so they went in my pocket or sat on the office desk.
