Why hire Patrick to be a software engineer?
 |
When I was still a rookie funeral director, I had
to retrieve the body of a 400 pound man from the morgue whose
organs had just been harvested for the organ donor program.
The chamber in which his body was placed was 7 feet above the ground.
It was up to me and 2 security guys to transfer the body to
the gurney I had brought in. The first move went alright except
that the body bag had ripped open and fluids had spilled onto
the floor. It made one of the security guys extremely uncomfortable
and he had to leave. The other security guy placed a towel on
the floor to soak up some fluid and asked that we run the gurney's
wheels onto the towel so it wouldn't track fluid through the
hallway. As we pushed it onto the towel, the weight of the
body was so much that the wheel twisted and the gurney tipped
over and the body fell off of it. Even completely flat, the
gurney was too high off the ground to slide the body onto it. It simply
took brute force and a lot of elbow grease for two guys to
(literally) dead lift the body back onto the gurney. It took an
hour and a half and it was the hardest thing I ever had to do on the job.
What I mean to illustrate is this: if you want someone
who is willing to stick it out on an engineering project
all the way to the end no matter how messy or complicated
the situation, look no further. |
