but man, there are some times….<\/p>\n
We have a project in house that involves a very specific type of grinding. And we have a Japanese engineer in house training our guys to do so. He’s very very very good, and he knows what he’s doing like few people I’ve ever seen.<\/p>\n
(You can hear the butt coming, can’t you?)<\/p>\n
I had to show him how to get to the Ethernet paramters on his own machine. <\/p>\n
I have never allowed myself to become an ‘Expert” on anything. I think this type of specialization is not for insects, but morons. <\/p>\n
I am conversant in a half dozen CNC programming languages. Three or four Robotics languages (In the early days, those overlapped) I can program a couple of different types of CMM. I can do FEA on solids, using software, and even to a lesser extent using just plain old math. I have been instrumental in establishing the industry standards for communication between machine tools and other devices, and am still involved in how those standard are implemented; I even managed to steer a group of academics away from silliness and towards useful functionality in a couple of organizations I belong to. (Pitiably, they are now using my tuition to make cash, which is somewhat annoying) I go where my interests and my requirements take me. <\/p>\n
I like that I can be called upon to do damned near anything, and i will adapt to it- even at this stage in my life, when most people’s brains have ossified beyond repair. <\/p>\n
but sometimes, I do still wish I was a one trick pony, doing one job simply and efficiently, better than anyone else would even consider possible. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
