me working hard.. Actually I patched the test rig so it would loop through all the tests itself four hours if needs be. The got rather boring to keep pressing switches all the time and watching lamps so built some circuit so the test rig would run by itself. For some reason the managers were never impressed with my ingenuity..

I had my own audio workshop all to myself. I used to be directly under the air conditioning so in summer you had to sit in there with your coat on :lol:
