Actually, SFOD-E has been a long standing joke here, sort of like Chuck Norris jokes. Only we've gotten to where we can pull it off at customer
sites.
Most people we do business with, the fun thing is to drop some accurately jargoned reference to it, then look embarrassed and say "never mind" or
"I shouldn't have brought it up". You have to do it with a straight face.
The fun thing is we all know to back up each other's stories so if someone asks one of the other guys it's "Who told you that" with this real
serious face, or "Dammit, Tom knows better than to discuss that...you're not cleared".
We've had brass call Tampa trying to find out who they are and why they didn't know about it. Very amusing.
The most fun is after a couple of us guys tell this junk to someone, denying it later just makes your victim more convinced he's onto something
secret.
I'm starting to get new SFOD-E stories I haven't told so I'm pretty sure it's building critical mass out there somewhere.
