Part Numbers at Work
As a steering gear engineer, I often have to find drawings in my company's computer system. It is Dos-based. It pretty much dates back to the steam-powered computer. My company's part numbering system used to be rather intuitive once you learned the system. Now, the numbers are sequentially assigned and it's damned near impossible to remember part numbers. I was trying to remember one from the other day and all I remembered was there was a Q, T, and the number 69. So I did a search for drawings with the search term "*QT*69*". I felt dirty. That one is for sure getting flagged. I can just picture our company's internet police, "What the hell is she hoping to find in our drawing system with the search term 'QT69'?! Fire her ass!"
