Don't have many images from my old job but I was with this company for nine years and here are a few images anyway...
026.jpg
one of the MPU's I used to repair. Z80 based.

020.jpg
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..

test rig with my few add-ons.

017.jpg
we used to get bored and set fire to things..

016.jpg
one of the test rigs.

010.jpg
view out of the window.

005.jpg
old Bob in the back room. This guy knew everything about everything.

004.jpg
Jonesy looking grumpy as it's 20 minutes until lunchtime, or in his case pub time.

003.jpg
new guy Alan. He used to get told off constantly for reading the parts catalogues from cover to cover.

Part two...(See previous page for other images)

Then in my next job where I was there about a year until the company closed, like the first one actually.

view out of my audio room workshop window.

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:

Image033.jpg
one of the amplifies I used to repair.

Image032.jpg
another one.

Image021.jpg
has anyone seen the boss lately?

Image005.jpg
they said give the touchscreen a good test, so I did.

Image003.jpg
I am not sure if they actually meant this though..

Image001.jpg
how many engineers does it take to change a lightbulb, seven apparently.

apparently no one had ever managed to crash the test rig in 30 years...
