  I was until a few years ago, a machine operator in plastic extrusion. All but one of our engineers were useless. Did they do work? Sure. Was it productive to the line? Occasionally…

  We paid $20,000 for a new mil thickness tester, made by young engineers at the local university.

  They held a whole “class” to show us how it worked, presentes not by the ones who build it, but by our engineers.

  It failed during presentation. So we all learned how to measure manually instead. It never worked. They ended up installing the old one back, which hardly worked.

  Then for the next year it sat broken, and unless the old thickness tester was in a good mood, we had to do it manually, which was so utterly time consuming and difficult.

  While I think engineers are important so many just fuck around, least where I worked.

  I find it peculiar we never heard about ms-13 until a few months ago (at most).
