- Thou shalt have a graphing calculator on thy person at all times.
- Thou shalt not have a sense of humor.
- Thou shalt institute Hawaiian Shirt Friday in thy workplace instead.
- Thou shalt mutter or sing to thyself when thou art concentrating intently.
- Thou shalt wear white socks every day.
- Thou shalt memorize process work instructions.
- Thou shalt capitalize 'engineer' in thine process work instructions, for thou art an Engineer, not an engineer.
- Thou shalt love metrics above all else.
- Thou shalt be "visual" and confuse thine coworkers with many signs and wonders.
- Thou shalt occasionally buy thy entire lunch from the vending machine.
Most of my coworkers are engineers. I am definitely not an engineer. At all. Ever. Amen. They're all very nice but they are a breed unto themselves...a marvelous, intelligent but definitely weird breed. Sometimes, I feel like an anthropologist observing a tribe in the Amazon. These are my notes from the field.
