    Good. As an engineer in a factory I’m sometimes called to help meet a shipment (we’re not well run) and I stand by that if it wasn’t necessary it would be good. Leadership needs to understand the base level value add of a company

      In addition, I would like to see design engineers spend some time in the repair shop working on the things they are designing.

      Maybe after they’ve burned their forearm a few times, things like putting the oil filter directly above the catalytic converter wouldn’t happen.

        In my utopia, all engineers would need to prove that the factory service manual repair time estimate can be done by them.

        This would make my life harder, but it’s necessary.
