    Moral of the story is: Engineers should have to have actual field experience before they become engineers lol.

    Is "red labels" a version of the tire or something?

    The "general grabber" is the name but they have red labels, so most people call them the red labels

    I also agree completely. Being an engineer in a field that I had 0 experience in prior to, I wish I had field experience. I've discussed with Zack before about this, because he used to do HVAC in the field, that he has way more knowledge and experience than I do in this stuff. That being said, I've got plenty of experience in government workings and paper work and the hoops you have to jump through, just learning the ins and outs of HVAC as I go along. I do enjoy the times I get to go to the field.

    Mad respect for anyone that wants to learn more. And even more respect for an engineer that wants to actually go out into the field and learn :bowdown:

    I have to put many CYA (cover your ass) notes on my drawings because I know field guys are going to change things some, but I try to do my best and learn what they do. It's difficult with time constraints, and the difficulty of getting field guys on phones, but I'm learning.
