66. Working at my first full time job

I was working at my very first full time job, which was as a Civil Service GS-5 (entry level) job as a Mathematician at Edwards Air Force Base in California, and living in the town of Lancaster. I had been working there for almost a year on that date (my one year anniversary was July 19).

I wouldn't recall what I was doing on that particular date. (Oddly enough I had not noticed or though of at the time that there was anything significant about the date, or the numbers associated with the date.) However I do remember I had a very rough time of it when I was working there.
