killivolt rather than kilovolt
Working in a TV repair shop, a New Tech ask me where the "laser" was on a JVC 5 disc CD Player.
I wasn't strapped down and working the counter, I turned around and pointed at the Laser and said right there.
He said how does it work, I said well see that glass right here and moved my finger down to it. stupid me the player was plugged in.
Suddenly a Blue Spark from the tip of my finger flew off into the lasers eye. To my astonishment the laser began searching and started moving up and down like it should?
Baffled I unplugged the unit and said to the Tech, Number 1, I think I'm in trouble. Number 2, that's why you wear a wrist strap.
After a minute, I plugged the player back in and again to my astonishment it began searching for CD's of course I loaded it up and began to play music that day and for a month.
My boss billed the customer and I earned the name " killivolt " cause I'm dangerously electric when ever you brush past me you could get a shock.
My real name is KV and my boss naturally associated them together.
So, to shorten it, you could just refer to me as kv, if you like.
