492.1Need more informationCVG::THOMPSONQuestion realityMon Mar 14 1988 19:5513
    Well people do ask about rumors here from time to time. You should
    supply a little more information though. For example, what is a
    support Eng. II? Is that a SWS job? A SASE or COG job? CSSE perhaps?
    Also where did you hear this? If it effects you and you didn't hear
    about it from your boss then you should talk to them ASAP. If you
    heard it from your boss and they're not sure then it's their job
    to find out. 

    A related question to ask is if this is related to JEC? Lots of
    job titles will be changed because of JEC. This may be one of them.
    Again talk to your boss if it impacts you.

You mean T8S? Yea, I heard the rumor too. (from a T7S).

It all means nothing however until the JEC stuff is done. Many jobs may
merge/dissapear. Also ranges are up in the air- your new range could go up,
down or stay the same.

492.4support eng. II = T7SNEWVAX::FILERThu Mar 17 1988 13:599
    	Support eng. II = T7S    The pay scale starts near the middle
    of the T5F range but the T7s doesn't get overtime. It is not the
    worlds greatest job.(btw i am a t7s) I think this rumor comes from
    the ny-nj area where they have lots of t8s and t9s engs. As I heard
    the storie they found that the T7S level engs. were not very affective
    in resolving calls so they sent them from the area down to the
    districts. Maybe someone in the ny. nj. area can fill us in with
    the "facts".
