On Oct. 17,1989, I was personally responsible for maintaining long-distance telephone service out of San Francisco, California in the aftermath of the Loma Prieta earthquake. During that time, people were unable to call across town in S.F. but were able to call New York and Los Angeles. Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention. Even God couldn't save the Giants. As a result of my work, I received the personal thanks and congratulations of the President of A.T. & T. So I asked him for a character reference so, when I got laid off, I could find another job.
