Old stuff

Was, still am, cleaning up the office and found these guys stuffed away. So yes I found my brown Trane book. And the fancy Honeywell t'stat that actually told you the time. And the thingy we used to imprint credit cards, a lot of young whipper snappers have never seen one of those.

    Would young people wonder why the customer would want the carbon paper from the transaction......."what is carbon paper"??

    I used one of those credit card imprinters at my first job...memories! How about this one...I still refer to the "enter" key on the keyboard as a carriage return. I get some weird looks on that one sometimes.

    The customers use to really appreciate it when you handed them back a 2-piece credit card....lol..... I'm picturing that dumb look on the face.

    Oh gee! I didn't know this stuff was for sale! :) I wonder if the Trane literature talks about their old steam system.

    Scan it and sent it to Dan. Not sure what file format he uses on this board, so ask.
