But I don't know who. I walked by their cubicle today and saw a little AT on the screen.

Who be it? :p

Whenever I walk into a new area I tend to scope people's screens for some ATOT action. Being in Portland, a Vic or RossMAN could be just down the hall and I'd never know it...

Whoever you are, please send me good GIS data for your railroad tracks because the ones I use at work kind of suck.

So true. My last job involved looking at rail capacity and distribution across the state and it was always a pita.


I will say that at least the rail companies are better than the gas ones...the gas companies do not keep comprehensive data sets.

I made a t shirt that says "I crossed the street today with the help of ATOT."

I know someone I work with reads AT and probably spends some time here, he's always on hardforums. I will NEVER admit to having spent time here. The shame.

you must have seen a 0 post lurker...

Since everyone on AT makes at leask 300k per year working 2 hours per week... no one is going to admit working for UP in a cubicle farm.

There was a guy at my work who I saw browsing AT so I chatted with him about it. He quit recently after telling a boss he was "afraid he was gonna hurt someone."

Yessssss!
