Default Re: Understanding Engineers.

As a mech eng student, we were sought out at uni by the psychology wasters for all sorts of surveys. Their conclusion being we were incapable of thought, ours that they were a waste of air.

30 years later, I am about to attend a course based on the worlds most mindnumbingly dull book. and it takes about 5 pages and 10 sleeps to realise ffs this is all phycology claptrap. What the feck do they know about the real world.

Engineers live by principles. You learn the rules, you apply the rules and hey presto things happen. You invoke chaos, then dont be surprised when it goes tits up.

Apply engineering to life and rule 1 applies.

**** happens.
