🚨 ENGINEERS — BE HONEST 🚨
What’s one thing you learned in the trade that college NEVER properly prepared you for?
I’ll start…
Fault finding under pressure.
It’s one thing learning theory in a classroom.
It’s completely different when you’re stood in someone’s kitchen, the heating is off, the customer is stressed, the boiler is throwing up a fault, and everyone is waiting for you to have the answer.
That’s where real engineering starts.
Not just knowing parts.
Not just fitting pipe.
But staying calm, thinking clearly, testing properly, and finding the actual cause of the problem.
For the apprentices in here:
Pay attention to the answers in the comments.
This is the type of knowledge that saves you years of mistakes.
