Who ever said my use of TECO deserved the label "professional".
I was a technician in Power Supply Engineering at the time and TECO was the text editor on the system I had access to. DEC hired me for my background in low level analog signals, *NOT* for anything CompSci related ;/

P.S. Decades later, when working thru a temp-to-perm agency, I got an interview because the interviewer "just wanted to meet somebody with my rather strange resume" {including verifiable references}.
