Description
Writing this book, for me, has really been a walk down memory lane the work part of memory lane.
As it is not intended as a technical book per se, I have included a few incidents of on-the-job problems, that I encountered over the years, and how they were handled figured that's the stuff that doesn't get covered in engineering school!
There is also a section on preparing cost estimates for some major projects, such as the Chicago T.A.R.P. contracts and a few pointers on bidding "overseas" projects. The chapter titled "Murphy's Law" is just that "It should not have happened" but it did. A few stories are recounted just as they happened, about totally unexpected incidents that caused delays, cost money, and caused some minor headaches for yours truly.
Enjoy!
