"GIVE A MAN A TOUGH JOB AND A CHANCE TO GO SOMEWHERE ...AND HE’LL BREAK HIS NECK TO DO IT” In 1958 when Bill Ebben was only a few months away from his engineering degree at the University of Detroit, he was in touch with 15 prospective employers. He chose the Michigan Bell Telephone Com pany because: “This company offered the kind of engineering management opportunity I wanted— and they weren’t kidding.” One of Bill’s first assignments was a survey of Michigan Bell’s big Central District to find out how long available building space could accom modate the switching equipment required by rapid telephone growth. “I wasn’t given any instruc tion,” Bill says, “I was just told to do the job.” So Bill did it. His report became the guide for planning and budgeting future construction. On his next move, Bill proved he could handle supervisory responsibility. He was sent to head up a group of seven engineers to design a new long distance switching center for Saginaw, Michigan —a $4,000,000 engineering project. Today, Bill is on the staff of Michigan Bell’s Program Engineer. He's working on a system for mechanized control of telephone construction costs. How does Bill feel about his job? "Give a man a tough job and a chance to go somewhere—and he’ll break his neck to do it. Of course, I don’t think I’m going to be running the business next year—but I’m getting every opportunity to hit the top. You don't worry about opportunity here—you worry about whether you're as big as the job." If you’re a man like Bill Ebben, a man who can size up a job, figure out what needs to be done, and then do it—then you should gel in touch with one of the Bell Companies.
