"... For a number of years now work has been proceeding in order to bring perfection to the crudely conceived idea of a transmission that would not only supply inverse reactive current for use in unilateral phase detractors, but would also be capable of automatically synchronizing cardinal grammeters. Such an instrument is the turbo encabulator. ..."

Isn’t it absolutely glorious fun to run a line like that past a covey of MBA’s and watch ‘em get all buggy-eyed?

I told one that my password was “warlock” once. Must have had some effect, because for the next six months, nobody in his little office clique would even get on the same elevator with me. Cut ‘way down on the snotty rejoinders in Status Meetings, too.

The real secret is in making sure that the magic blue smoke has the correct color tone. If you, as a tech, allow it to get too much grey in that tone pretty soon the system is overheating and the blue smoke is seeking release and it will find an egress. When that happens, it takes a lot of work to stuff that magic blue smoke back into the casing to make the system work again. Techs should always use a properly calibrated grayonficator to check the color tone of the smoke when ever they service any device. Of course, we all are aware that it is time consuming and expensive to properly calibrate the grayonificator, but if this step is overlooked, the consequences are grave. It is, therefor, imperative to impress on upper management to include sufficient time and funds for greyonification calibration, if not indeed, providing staff to handle such calibration.
