 I pretty much always knew that being an engineer would be pretty fun for me because my dad always worked on cars, like he wasn't a mechanic or anything but he always took apart things. My brother and me would always take apart things right next to him. Being able to see exactly the nuts and bolts that go into everything is pretty interesting. You get to see it started from A and it got to B. I love that about engineering. So what GC's mostly do is troubleshooting. You have to know the system forwards and backwards. You have to be able to say, hey it started like this, it ended like this. There is a problem in between here and I can figure out from redoing these steps exactly what's wrong with that problem and be able to fix it and make a huge change to the ship just because you simply replaced a little tiny wire that was loose and that's how the ship runs. Being an engineer itself isn't the greatest thing in the world. You can have the worst job in the world but the people you work with, if they help you out, if they stand up for you, you're going to love your job. You're going to want to go out there and scrape grease off the bottom of the ship and you're going to want to go in there into a 120 degree module to go change out a tiny screw. At the end of the day, you're like, without us, the ship won't be able to do what it needs to do. I love that. I love being able to say, hey without me, I make a difference.
