Holy crap, an informed article about industrial engineers! Never thought i’d see us ‘imaginary engineers’ (as we were called in school) getting the limelight. And from google (alphabet?) of all places!

I don’t like getting drawn into the conversations that are started with utterly absurd original posts, but here goes.

No one but a former wash bay attendant can appreciate the horrors lurking within ‘appliance’ vehicles. VW beetles were by far and away the worst.
