Know it all tradesmen.
Some of these posts beg for comment.
sap you argueing with an archiect sounds all too familiar. I hear machinists talk all the time behind the backs of engineers about how "they'" (the engineers don't know anything.
particularly after an error has been made. Typically after asking loaded questions or trying to sharpshoot the engineers.
usually it's laughable, I've noticed it's either the machine "operators" or the old school machinists that have only been around forever, but have neglected to update their skills, and keep up with the times. These guys seem to have to try and assert themselves with the engineers.
Argue all they like. At the end of the day the Engineer is still the engineer. Or in this instance, the artichect.
"Just showing up" to work everyday for years on end doesn't make one an expert. Updating your skills through experience and continuing education, would be the better plan.
My point is....The machinists that I've seen that REALLY are awesome machinists, aren't trying to win little arguements with engineers. What caught my eye about this post, other than your celebrity stutus.
was the blueprint arguement. That's usually the subject matter of the machinist/engineer arguements. As if the only arena that these lesser machinist can display their trade knowledge is to start an agruement and try to proudly display their blueprint reading prowess. It's quite comical, and so was this arguement.
You rock! Sap.
Thanks.:biggrinbounce2:

Take care, man.
