Speaking to a mechanical engineer
|
|
formerly employed by [[power-design-inc|PDI]]
|
|
I asked if they had any examples of PDI-specific practice
|
|
that they had been lead to believe was industry standard.
|
|
They said that the drafting that they were expected to perform
|
|
was at an unhappy middle ground of granularity
|
|
between the practice they were taught in school
|
|
would be appropriate for their skill
|
|
and that which they associated with operations.
|
|
|
|
I likened the engineer's experience to my own in estimating,
|
|
although I came from the grunt work side of detail.
