Nantong,
No offense. We're just playing.
Young? Heh, heh, heh. Thats a good one.
Inspector? Thats almost as funny.
No. I am the Manager of Quality Assurance, Quality Control, Welding Engineering and Metallurgy, 2 AISC Programs for Structural Steel Erection and Fabrication, 3 ASME Programs for Pressure Piping, Boiler Code, and a 5 scope 2 location program for nuclear, as well as an API program for fabrication, maintenance, and inspection under API 1104, 510, 570,and 653. I also manage a 3 location, 3 product line, 2 company ISO 9001 program.
Also, I have very little insecurity when it comes to criticisms from Project Managers or Construction Managers.
They really don't want to piss me off.
As for child like understanding? I am well aware that such an opinion is popular amongst europeans and the american left. But right back atcha with the indictment that the european approach to the world is much like the proverbial camel.
As for your first question, that seems to be giving you so much consternation, I think jon's statement said it all. Neither he nor I have stuggled as you have. So, whats the problem? It is possible my company would allow me to consult if need be. I doubt they would consider you competition.
And one last thing, trying to explain to you the socialist influences of europe is like trying to explain the properties of water to a fish.
