JOB LIST

Never looked so carefully at this list before. (Can't remember where i got the list from, must have been Employment Office by the time there still was one in Beaverton.) Some of the pages are printed partially and at an angle. But don't understand why the second job in 96, that where i made 674 dollars was through Olsten since i know for sure i worked at Electronic Specialty through Interim Personnel, on Chkalov drive in Vancouver, WA which later changed its name to Spherion. Corporations games, changing corporation names.

That might explain why they have been so nice to me when i worked at Infocus as an auditor, then a technician, through them again, in the fall of 96 where i quit so i can go and work at Epson for less money, but with my wife so she can work too cause she kept complaining for siting home alone for almost a year back then. In the end, the irony is now she is working and me not for so long.

LOL i remember at Blount why they made me quit. I was working on a milling machine sharpening star(triangle) shaped rotors for mowers. There was a fixture and i was just changing the part and starting the cycle. I didn't understand how many i was supposed to do, but after a few days everybody was kinda angry with me until after about a week i understood why... I was doing double the amount of the other two shifts combined LOL. Same thing happened a few years later at Laughlin through Express, until they ran out of parts and they fired me...  A Chinese woman called me a commie! Now i know it was all staged... Some of the coworkers, including my recruiter at Express were celebrities, the woman at Express (i first worked through them in early 96 at Credence) was looking a lot like Stevie Nicks...

LOL at Epson i was working on the world record line, doing frequently more than 500 printers per shift and my wife together with another Romanian, Dragoş Ţăvârlău, from Bucharest were both working on a similar line and doing less the 300..

In 98 i did not work for Softlink (although i've been told that the company was called Softlink before) but i knew the company name was Quadramed. Sir Frances Drake Blvd. In San Fancisco.

By the way, in autumn 97, after being laid off from Credence (Express) - Credence sold that part of the company, service for testers out of fabrication, to a startup in San Francisco, led by the brother of one of the Credence cofounders. I drove 700 miles in 13 hours in a car (white 89 Escort GT) that i bought from Insurance Auto Auction (during that job, summer 96) after being totaled and i fixed it myself, replacing the hood, radiator, a fender, the bumper and the mask. However, there was a problem with the body and every time i was accelerating, it was making a squeaking sound and pulling one way and when i was breaking, the other. And had a broken exhaust and made a terrible noise. My supervisor at Credence, Dino Gipaya from Hawaii was the nicest guy i met. Not like the other one i worked with at AVX. I fixed the exhaust one year after i bought it but in early 98 three months after i was laid off from Les Schwab and working at Credence we rolled over in a ditch (my wife was driving) at one mile near the Ocean and totaled it. Again. LOL.

Oops, He Did It Again!

Some credit him with starting the 1997-1998 financial crisis in Asia. I think it was the second notable hit (for the casual observer) in a series that continue until today. We know for sure he "broke the bank of England in 1992" making 1 billion dollars by betting some 6,5 billion borrowed money against the devaluation of sterling pound. I think at the time we all heard of rumors of insider information. I think a couple of Englishmen went to jail for that (still have to verify that). There are numerous accounts of his ventures on the Internet. From time to time he shows up in the media and makes predictions, warnings and prophecies.

Just opened the Wikipedia page and saw within the first self indulgent paragraphs that he donated 8 billion through charities to various causes including the first cited one, "human rights".

I keep asking myself, how do you donate money to human rights as a cause or concept? You have to give it to an organization and choose which one fights better for human rights vs other. Human rights is also related to the equality of all men.

How somebody can be equal to others when he gets huge amounts of money using insider information for betting against institutions most sensitive to our economical stability and development, always gets away with it, uses it to create unrest in different parts of the world then bragging about saying it was for human rights?

Especially by projecting self as a super brainy, virile, Robin Hood, marrying again at 82 with a 40 years younger woman still in her prime?

Now he made the news again with making money from devaluation of yen which as a financial genius he foresaw at the arrival of the new prime minister of Japan. What was this time, genius of inside info?

And all the billions he made was what, small fish lost in the anonymous ocean of the world's wealth that nobody keeps track of?

What can we say when these days the stock market is worked up with supercomputers that buy and sell in milliseconds in a continuous saraband of electronic trade belonging to organizations that compete to get those computers as close as possible to the building where the stock market has its own supercomputers, as the speed of the signal and the length of lines count in the competition?

One thing is sure, he's not the only one who's robbing the markets but the only that also twists it and uses it as positive image.

Fuel Pump Relay

Lately or maybe for a long time i had problems with my fuel pump relay, a really strange problem, i had different voltages on the coil circuit, every time i was measuring. Recently, at times it wasn't starting at all. Sometimes probably it was flickering on the pump circuit while driving. This might explain the sudden decrease in fuel economy after 2004 when i came back from Romania. I went to all of the mechanics i knew and they all told me: Just drive the damn car, George! It will cost you more to fix it than the difference you pay for the extra gas!

But now it started not to start any more. After taking apart in one whole day most of the connectors of the electric circuits, i figured the problem comes directly from the computer, and i understood now why it does not stop the fuel pump after 2 seconds. Then i connected the relay coil directly to the ignition bypassing the computer and voilà! fixed the problem. I still don't have fuel pump interruption after two seconds but who cares. I didn't have that since i bought it. Another interesting phenomenon though: After i did the above described short cut, the computer suddenly started to output the right voltage for the relay when measured without the modification! And that happened while i was near the car, nobody had access to it, from one minute to another, the only explanation could be someone has control over it from a distance.

Since the relay if it was flickering on the pump circuit because of the low voltage probably was flickering at higher rpms when vibration was present, and now DEQ only tests the cars at idle and for my year and type, 1998 Chevy S10, it not even tests it any more, just downloads the diagnostic data from the computer. I think those big dynos from the basement of DEQ testing floor from the good old days had their own good use.
