   In the first 23 years of my working life, the engineers at that company were great people. If there was an issue with a product or process, they’d come out to see if it was a tooling or design issue and we worked together to make things right. I spent the next 27 years with a different outfit with the engineering staff in Europe. Again, a helpful group of people. The last 7 years, though, we hired a US staff. They never saw a railroad track before but claimed to know more about it than people with 20 to 30 years experience. Anything they designed was fraught with problems and when pointed out we were told we weren’t smart enough to use it. So yeah, I have somewhat of a jaundiced view.

    The guys and gals I ride with are more concerned if there is a potty at the next stop. That said, I’m more trusting of someone in a leather jacket and tats than I am with a guy in a suit and tie.
