    Well, the solution is to pay bus drivers more. Currently, they make extremely close to minimum wage, with split shifts, so it donesn't attract your best and brightest. Maybe get them unionized and start paying benefits and pension. That'll improve things.

    Selling used fuel injectors online. I have them advertised as supporting 680 hp on a domestic v8. (SRT stage 1 Siemen Dekas). Once a week for the last year I get replies of ‘I would really like 600 hp, how do I put them in my Chevy truck or Dodge whatever.’ I guess I have too much heart to just sell them to some idiot and let them run with it. They want complete engine design and after sales support for a $100 part. It’s your fucking project, you figure it out.

    Email is not a project tracking system and it's not a document storage system.

    The math says I shouldn't be, but it doesn't bother me that much.

    At least when people say it they say it the same as it's written. Nobody says prolly, it doesn't make any sense to spell it like that.

    Engineers who justify having extremely poor chicken scratch handwriting due to being an engineer.

    That's got M.Eng, PMP written all over it because real engineers have to take (and fuckin pass) a second year class with a huge emphasis on crystal clear penmanship. I believe there is less emphasis on this at "Super#1 OilJobs Engineersity of Eastern EurAsiaStan in Affiliation with Northern KoreIslamabad and DeVry of Western Samoa".

    But that's none of my business...

    You aren’t a real engineer. A REAL engineer has shitty chicken scratch, can’t you read?

    Haha lots of P.Eng with terrible shit writing.

    The ones that bug me the most is when they write on the board or page and KNOW they are going to run out of space but still decides to cram the entire word without even trying to use abbreviations or hyphen. How can you problem solve or think critically when you can't even deal with word spacing?

    Everyone is talking about how you can now catch the corona virus THROUGH YOUR EYES!!!

    No fucking shit, you eyes are one of the biggest and easiet entry ways into your system for ANYTHING. Not just corona virus, not just a normal flu, fucking everything including dust. There's a reason people where full face mask PPE.

    Medusa is real. The only counter measure is to look at their reflection on a mirror and chop their heads off. I have a mint mirror for sale, anyone?
