Welcome to My Blog for thoughts of a “phone man”
About Me
As the welcome message indicates, I am a “phone man.” You may ask yourself, “What is a phone man?” This is simply someone who works for a phone company. Naturally, I enjoy all things telephone as well as work for a telephone company. Not only do I enjoy telephones, but I enjoy networking, programming, and learning new things. As my mother always used to remind me as a kid, “Knowledge is power.”
Furthermore, Telephone networks were some of the first networks to be utilized for communication purposes in many countries and were the founding principals for modern digital networks that we have today. Sooooo……. Why would telephone networks not be fascinating? My blog aims to deliver content of a telephone nature, but I am going to share other things I have found on networking, and programming.
I hope this blog serves you well, and you find some enjoyment in simply skimming over some of my content!
