I once had a job through a temporary agency at a firm named Praegitzer in Hillbsoro i guess (it's been more than 20 years since). Before year 2000 when i was still full of hope and American dream (maybe i should turn this into a blog post maybe if i could remember the date) and exact place.
So i think it was Manpower who sent me there, after an hours long screening process which included hand eye coordination and elementary math. But i think the first time i signed with Manpower was about this time of August 1995 in Salem. There i did a hand eye coordination test they said it was too accurate (off the scale) and they didn't hire me for Wafertech.
So i go there (at Praegitzer) in a Friday, there was this big meeting only for perms and i was in a different room with a guy who was adjusting some electronic receivers. When i say adjusting, i say, literally moving wires and bending walls between different compartments of several receivers which were about twice the size of a car stereo while looking at a scope. It seemed the guy was in a hurry to ship those. They gave me something to do, i can't remember now, and from time to time i was hearing the owner (old man Praegitzer) talking yelling something at the meeting with a bad accent that was adding to my lack of advanced English or so i thought, cause the only word i could understand, repeating like every minute or so, was Siberia, and then the public (about 50 persons, by the noise) applauded (not to be confounded with uploaded).
Towards the end of the day (why do i remember it was an evening) the guy told me those were receivers for a security firm or security of cell phones firms that were able to recognize the analog signature of a specific cell phone, like a fingerprint. That was again in 1996 or something.
Anyways. Here came the end of the day, it was a Friday, the guy with the receivers didn't say anything, or said see you Monday or something like that, everything seemed fine, didn't get any message from the temp firm, and i came back Monday.
However, on Monday when i went there, there was no more Praegitzer logo on the wall. I tried to enter, nobody. I contacted the temp agency who told me the company moved over the weekend and forgot to tell me about. They said i shouldn't bother to go next day to the next location.
Here is an old news article about Praegitzer since 1997. Dallas based? this is where i lived my first month in 1995 at Julian Mart who could actually have been Gregorian. Julian Mart apparently knew about this guy, back then i was telling him everything i was doing. (Me living in Dallas next to Salem created a lot of confusion among my relatives in Romania who thought i lived in Dallas Texas).
Julian even took us to a place called Southfork (next to a local river). In the picture. Most likely Veronica Mart (don't know the Hungarian name, right) next to "George Hârșovescu, the Romanian pilot from Salem" (Gyula Szombathy).
This is just an example. At every job i went to, short or long, i don't believe i met with normal people but always actors. One of the best examples is Axl Rose at AVX Vanvouver, former, current Kyocera, where he has been my supervisor for almost one year (but he was working part and floating time, only a few hours a day, always different).
AVX and Axl has some name similarity. I even have a picture with him since. His live stage name was also Orville Oster, and anagram of Oster ir Roset. Another guy i remember there, Tom Green, could have been General Greene who i think was killed in Afghanistan, shortly after i mentioned his name. The guy from Inner Circle, a fellow tech who didn't know the size of Allen wrenches in fraction of inches, black, fat, braids and everything. David Espasandin, day shift supervisor who could have been Major Omar Haisan. Not last and not least, Mădălina Ghenea, by the name of Elena Andrei, whom i met back in 97. Though in 97 Mădălina Ghenea was officially 9 years old and in reality was probably 16 posing as a 22-23.

Others are William Shatner (by the name Shanon), Leonardy Nimoy (Tom Allan), Cameron Diaz, others at Quadramed, including Macy Gray. Yes, the song was about me, the title of my first program in object oriented Delphi and my constant shortness of breath due to nasal congestions due to all kinda witchcraft.
