You can't believe VTX TEL. It has wildly inaccurate information. It lists
twice as many Digital offices in Dallas as there really are.

| Cathy,
There is an office in Boise. I used to make support trips there from
Portland, Oregon. Lookup Mel Barth in VTX ELF, he is a support
engineer that is currently in Boise.

Dave

| The Boise office currently houses a territory sales manager, six sales
people (spread across the CBUs), a sales administrator, one sales
support person, and assorted MCS personnel, with which I am less
familiar. Additional sales support comes from our office in Salt Lake
City, Utah.
There is a small office in Idaho Falls, which supports two MCS people
and a Digital Consulting delivery specialist.
The Pocatello "office" is someone's garage which serves as a logistics
drop point for the MCS engineer that lives there.

Does this person get to make up thier own plant designator and select the
one (or two) local holidays? :-)

| i'd move to ID in a flash if there were any jobs there. you don't
suppose there is any demand for a network consultant with a damned fine
track record do you. .......... didn't think so.

| 2707.11 | what a great name! | MR4DEC::LBERMAN | | Wed Oct 13 1993 17:30 | 9 |
| I got a good chuckle and blast to the past when I saw the
word "Pocatello." Does anyone else remember "Doonesbury"
from the early-mid 70's timeframe...when Joanie Caucus
rented a shared apartment...her scary landlady's name
was Mrs. Pocatello! She wore a bathrobe, rollers in her
hair and always had a cigarette dangling from her lips.
Anyway, just thought an end-of-the-day laugh was in order!
regards!

Sure do, in fact I still have a copy of the Doonesbury Chronicles
which I pull out for kicks as well as nostalgia every now and then.
I have to admit that pre-hiatus Donnesbury was better than post.

| re .11
Pocatello's fame gets a lot weirder than Doonsbury. In the early part of
this century, most railroad workers were blacklisted for participating
in the 1897? 3? general strike. Without letters of recommendation, they
could not get jobs. Some wise guy made a living selling such letters.
Each letter indicated that the person had been the night yard master
in Pocatello. Pretty soon, there were more people working night shift
in the Pocatello freight yards than there were people in Pocatello.
So they tell me, anyway.

| 2707.14 | yes.. we're here! | SALISH::JENKINS_DO | | Thu Oct 14 1993 23:51 | 5 |
| I've been in Boise Idaho office for 13+ years.... It is a small office
and truly is a great place to live -- even if lots of folks outside
Idaho still think "we circle the wagons at night"... rustic but not
quite that rustic. I'm curious why you wanted to know if Digital has
an office here?

re .14
since I work from home I am pretty much free to be where I want as long
as a)It's a local call to a DTN b)I have mgt approval
I live in colorado springs right now, but it's grown way beyond the
small mountain city that I used to love....
I did alot of research into different places, Boise seemed to stand
out..
WOuld you mind sending me any info you might have about schools, skiing
;-) or whatever else is important (I s'pose housing might be
important!)..you can send it offline if you like, or add it here!
thanks.

| 2707.17 | the Pocatello-Doonesbury link? | MR4DEC::LBERMAN | | Wed Oct 20 1993 12:27 | 9 |
| re: 12 and 13:
Thanks for the encouraging news that I'm not the only
one who has a well-worn copy of "The Doonesbury Chronicles!!"
Now if we can only determine if Mrs. Pocatello used to live
in Pocatello and if her former husband had been one of the
unfortunate blacklisted workers allegedly from Pocatello...

| Pssst, Dot,
Don't forget to tell them about the mosquitoes and the bears. It
wouldn't be fair to make them think this is paradise, 'specially since
that last buffalo stampede took out most of the crop in my back 40.
Yeee-haw!
[;^)
