Speaking to a mechanical engineer formerly employed by 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 detail 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.
