00:06.640 --> 00:10.480
Yeah . My very first position I

00:10.480 --> 00:13.650
was sent to building 41 , I sat at the

00:13.650 --> 00:16.040
end of a conveyor belt . And if a

00:16.040 --> 00:18.410
package came down the conveyor belt

00:18.420 --> 00:20.420
that didn't have a label , I had to

00:20.420 --> 00:22.587
grab it and then find out where it was

00:22.587 --> 00:24.753
supposed to go to and type a label for

00:24.753 --> 00:26.864
it . I started off in the typing pool

00:26.864 --> 00:29.630
as um I learned different things and

00:29.630 --> 00:31.741
got farmed out to different areas . I

00:31.741 --> 00:34.350
found that I like to supply a lot . Um

00:34.350 --> 00:36.450
So I applied for a position in the

00:36.450 --> 00:40.080
supply field . Um Got picked up as a

00:40.080 --> 00:43.390
GS three Supply Tech . Um From there I

00:43.390 --> 00:47.010
went to DRM are in the realization

00:47.010 --> 00:49.390
area and worked as a clerk , typist

00:49.400 --> 00:52.140
preparing the catalogs of merchandise

00:52.140 --> 00:55.410
that were sold at D . R . M . O . After

00:55.410 --> 00:58.750
that I went back to supply . Um Got

00:58.760 --> 01:01.040
picked up in one of the original intern

01:01.040 --> 01:04.940
programs for supply um and was hired

01:04.940 --> 01:08.490
as A . GS 79 11 . You had a cuba four

01:08.490 --> 01:10.790
people and then another queue before

01:10.790 --> 01:12.846
and another cuba . Four depending on

01:12.846 --> 01:14.846
how big your organization was . And

01:14.846 --> 01:16.901
then you had a supervisor who sat at

01:16.901 --> 01:20.300
the head of the um space . Um The

01:20.300 --> 01:22.244
supervisor was the only one with a

01:22.244 --> 01:24.870
telephone with a telephone on their

01:24.870 --> 01:28.200
desk . So when we got a

01:28.210 --> 01:31.100
telephone to share amongst four people

01:31.100 --> 01:34.980
we thought we had really moved up uh on

01:34.980 --> 01:37.202
the food chain because we no longer had

01:37.202 --> 01:39.424
to go to the supervisor's desk to use a

01:39.424 --> 01:41.570
phone . Um There was smoking .

01:41.580 --> 01:44.440
Everybody who were smokers did smoke

01:44.450 --> 01:46.570
inside the building and we were all

01:46.570 --> 01:49.050
very relieved when that was moved to

01:49.060 --> 01:53.040
outside smoking only because sometimes

01:53.040 --> 01:54.651
it wasn't very pleasant with

01:54.651 --> 01:56.818
everybody's different cigarette smells

01:56.818 --> 01:58.160
and cigar smells going around .
