This will be the second installment of exercises I have done during this course.

Udemy Course Exercise 4: Finding the Good

I decided to pick a person I worked with at a company a few years ago.

This person was very good at presenting our company in a good light. Creating fantastic presentation with power point although a little long at time.

I believe this person to be a very religious person possibly mores so than I at the time I worked with him.

He was a fantastic father and spending much time with his son whom I know he loved very much and acting as coach for his baseball team.

He was very good at politicking and trying to get that point across to me.

Udemy Course Exercise 6: Principles

I’ll use creating an mBOm from Engineering as my example. The example of setting up my computer would not work in this exercise.
The three main principles in creating an accurate mBOM from an Engineering BOM would be.
1) Make sure you understand the build structure and what parts need to be created as subassemblies etc..

2) When signing off on the Engineering, upon seeing a group of parts that should or will be purchased together, have Engineering create an assembly rather than you creating a manufacturing parts.

3) Opposite of two, if there are assemblies that can not be purchased and installed as an assembly have Engineering eliminate that assembly and purchase the details without having to create phantom assemblies.

All of these exercises have been fun to do and at times very stressful because I don’t know if I am doing well or not. Does that matter? No it does not it us just my way of over analyzing everything I do. I did another random connection and here is that one.

Random Connection Part Deux

I felt a sense of sadness when I witnessed a physical offense against a nameless Hindu minding his own business at the airport this morning. I know it is a fantasy but some day this world will be free of such violence.

(I don’t recall exactly what the random words were (I think some were ‘Sadness, Hindu and fantasy’)
