Lobitz68 Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 Oooo ooo oooo...... *holds up hand from the back of the class* Rectal Thermometers? Ha! No... We manufacture all kinds of devices, but I work with interventional cardiology products like balloon angioplasty catheters, stents, implantable pacemakers, etc... Life saving devices, not thermometers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B4ZINGA Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 Trying being an engineer in the US. Living in the US day-to-day I have to use the imperial system. When I step into work, I have to switch to metric. Being bi-lingual isn't fun, especially when a non-engineer friend or family member asks about those details and they get glossy-eyed. Part dimensions are in mm. Test chamber temperatures are in C. Only once did I get to stick to one system, the one day I had to travel to WAP (Windsor Assembly Plant) for work. I have faith that those silly Canuckistanians will learn the error of their ways and come back into the fold! (I kid, I prefer metric to imperial) It seems like the biggest hurdle to the US making the switch is getting all of the mathematically-challenged citizens (98% of the population) to accept it. As it is, bolt sizes on cars and many structures are metric. I've only ever used imperial-sized sockets on corroded or worn bolt heads to get that fraction of a millimeter difference for better fitment.
