LOL... well, the bolts stripping would be the fault of the tech, not the 
engineer.

In the case of software -- the bugs happening over and over again (same 
bugs, different decade... literally) is crazy.

"Oh look, yet another engineer that thinks the network/backplane/real 
world will always deliver his/her packets un-mangled!"  :-)

Of course, then they just blame it on the hardware engineer, and move on...
