After 12 years in the field, I have been promoted to Principal Calibration Engineer at 9.81 Precision Systems. I was told this is a significant career milestone. I measured the significance at approximately 7.3 on a scale I developed for this purpose. It accounts for professional advancement, salary increase, and the slight change in office elevation (0.4 m higher, resulting in a 0.000001 m/s² reduction in local gravity that I have already corrected for). Gravity doesn't calibrate itself. Neither does a career. #Promotion #PrincipalEngineer #981PrecisionSystems

Field Report — Site: Aberdeen Gravitational Monitoring Station Anomaly detected at 06:47 GMT. Local gravity reading: 9.8072 m/s². Expected: 9.8067 m/s². Deviation: +0.0005 m/s². Cause identified: a flock of starlings roosting on the gravimetric sensor created 0.0003 m/s² of additional mass load. The remaining 0.0002 m/s² is under investigation. Calibration completed at 11:23 GMT. Current reading: 9.8067 m/s². Within tolerance. Gravity doesn't calibrate itself. That's why I'm here. #GravityCalibration #FieldReport #981PrecisionSystems
