Thomas Edison, the storied inventor and businessman, once worked at P&G! #PGHeritage In 1865, James N. Gamble hired a young Edison as a mechanic. During his time, Edison advised Gamble to invest in a dedicated telegraph line to connect P&G's Main Office to its plant two miles away. Up to that point, P&G used couriers to shuttle orders back and forth. Edison taught employees how to operate the telegraph and remarked that Gamble was especially adept and skilled. 💡 Learn more about Edison's impact at P&G: https://lnkd.in/g4nDsXGa

Tremendo invento. Una línea de telégrafo dedicada para conectar la oficina principal de P&G con su planta a dos millas de distancia.
