Instrumentation Engineering. Basically controls work. Heat treat processes in a aerospace manufacturing company, did some design and testing in a mechanical and metallurgical lab. Some R&D on some military equipment. Did ten years in building controls across a 30 building medical campus which did a whole range from patient care to research. My field also takes in petrochemical to resource extraction to process control. Process control from the heat treat furnaces and ovens to waste water to, well anything that can be measured and controlled. From what sensors to use, dealing with the signal, taking it and using it to control vales, fans, pumps...

I taught a little of it and a good example I used was a car. Your measuring the air temperature, the manifold pressure, fuel pressure, throttle position, engine temperature, engine speed, controlling the ignition, the fuel injectors, the transmission sensors, displaying pertinent information to the driver, data logging... Worked on automation, packaging equipment. I was real close to working at a drug manufacturing plant but I would always have to wear a lab coat and that is something that would be painful to me. Now if you are familiar with the field I just went on and on when I could have just said which one I was in.
Fascinating stuff, and the real devil is always in the details. Thank you for painting the real picture. What do you do now? Besides not wearing lab coats (which I rarely did) although one of my cutest pictures is me in a lab coat LOL I swear it's the curly red hair.

Oh my, I am not even going to start thinking about that.

Now, retired. Hopefully building guitars in the near future, just for fun.

That one guitar you built was very nice.

So I went upstairs to pull out that white coat pic and came up with this white coated one (@BobBitchen )

It snowed that day in southern california so I hauled out all my ski gear and ........

Isn't it hilarious people who shrugged off such a high number of infections, think they can win a 1 in whatever million lottery

"Studies show that health care workers were more than three times as likely to contract covid as the general public."

I have many opinions surrounding this.
