People think brain surgeons are really smart but a lot of times I’m in there poking around and have no idea what some of that stuff is or does.
Probably the same with gynecologists.

At my company the trainers are the people who couldn’t hack it in the field.

Health Insurance Your plan offers waaaaaaay more benefits than you think it does. Your doctor/hospital drives up costs much more than we do. Your doctor will happily bill you more than the contract allows if he can get away with it.
You are scum, respectfully.

You have to remember he's talking about the middle of the bell curve and a lot of engineers end up in sales or other non-technical areas. They need to understand what they're talking about but they're not designing things, and you use it or lose it.
But ALL engineering jobs aren't like that or we wouldn't make much progress. AI may be changing that but we'll see.

I
I coil the handline in my r8ght hand, then grab the horn in my right hand then the also the net halfway or again. All in my right hand. Then i grab the left side of the lead line and flip it kind of backwards then loop it over my r8ght fist 3 separate times. Then grab about 3 handfuls of the lead line on the left in my left hand. Rotate and throw.
The best guide on Lake Texoma (a friend of mine) taught me that several years ago. I don't like to triple load because after a few times of throwing the net over your shoulder, you're soaking wet.
Caught som3 nice gizzard shad this afternoon and my wife and I caught our limit of stripe(20). We left them biting and could have caught 100.

It’s kinda true, most are synthetic compounds BASED on plant’s natural defenses like nicotine or pyrethrum. You can live a long life and use nicotine. But I doubt you will last long packing your lip with Imidacloprid, a neonictinoid.

You would live a long time on flavonoids, which are proven beneficial to human health but actually function as pest/pathogen deterrents, repellents and insecticides.
