[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have him get a teaching degree. Or how about being a mechanic? Engineering isn't really about taking things apart. It's about problem solving through endless calculations and strategies. True, most engineers have good mechanical skills, but they also need very strong academic skills. [b]They also need to be very careful and precise [/b]- ' doesn't test well' is not impressive.[/quote] This is so untrue. You are clearly not an engineer. My job #1 with new engineers is to to break them of this notion that was beat into them by their teachers and overbearing parent. It needs to be good enough. We can fix it in the next version (as long as it does not kill anybody). Nothing is ever perfect. It needs to go to production, now. [/quote] Are you a PE?[/quote]
