- Fake sincerity?
- =============
Since my quote was taken out of context, I'm posting the original set
of Murphy's laws for Laser techs:
PEOPLE always remember the last mistake you made.
HE who hesitates is probably smart.
THE less a laser system costs, the MORE it costs to fix.
THE one who works on a project last, always gets the most credit.
WHATEVER happens, behave like you meant it to happen.
EXPERIENCE is something you don't get until just after you needed it.
CONFIDENCE is the feeling that you have just before you fully
understand the problem.
WHEN you get to the point where you really understand your laser
system, it's obsolete.
AS soon as you find a laser system that is easy to use, someone will
add some peripherals you don't understand how to operate.
YOU will always find the information you need in a section of the
manual where you would least expect to find it.
IF all else fails ... READ THE MANUAL!!!
FOR every action, there is an equal and opposite malfunction.
TO err is human ... to blame the system for your mistakes is even more
human.
THAT which cannot be serviced will require the most service.
IF you can distinguish between good advice and bad advice, you
probably didn't need any advice in the first place.
NO job is so simple that it can't be screwed up.
THE person who says that something can't be done should never
interrupt the person who is doing it.
A specialist is a person who knows more and more, about less and less,
until he gets to the point where he knows absolutely everything about
nothing.
A conclusion is when you've reached the point where you can't think
anymore.
THE component which has the shortest life span, will always be located
in the least serviceable location.
WHENEVER you don't understand what you're doing, remember to do it
neatly.
ANY technical problem can be solved given enough time and money, but
you will NEVER have enough time and money.
THE secret to a successful presentation is sincerity. Once you learn
to fake sincerity, you've got it made.
IF it weren't for the last minute, nothing would ever get done!
