Re: Understanding Engineers
One thing they will never tell you because they want to keep it a secret is that the one thing that makes all electronic devices work is smoke. If the smoke leaks out, it won't work again.

Re: Understanding Engineers
Was replacing the blower motor on my F 150 and unknowingly had a high impedance air gap which resulted in the 4-wheel drive no longer functioning. Checked fuses, relays so on couldn't get it to work. Looking at parts on Rock Auto saw a picture of the control module then my two brain cells collided, sure enough if you unplug it it won't work.

Re: Understanding Engineers
Wait... wait... aren't engineers just the guy at the throttle of a train? Not terribly complicated... whereas I have a steering wheel and multiple gear choices and other traffic to contend with...

Re: Understanding Engineers
In most plants, engineers are the guys who make all of the cutesy signs for the safety campaigns.
Re: Understanding Engineers
If you think driving a train is "not terribly complicated" you've never been anywhere near the cab of a locomotive. You probably don't understand the difference between speed an momentum and have no clue how centrifugal force works.

Re: Understanding Engineers
Two Surgeons were talking. First one said: I prefer to do surgery on Engineers. Open them up, and everything is numbered and color coded.
Second Surgeon said: I prefer automobile mechanics. Not only are things numbered and color coded, but they understand if you leave a part out and it things don't work right the first time.
