With two engineers at home, their conversations are sometimes discussions about work.
Although they are from slightly different engineering fields, they work in relatively similar industries and so the discussions will revolve around one engineer getting technical explanation about certain mechanical aspects with the other engineer learning about the complexities of work in a certain industry.
A win-win scenario for both.
However, they are not the only one benefiting from these discussions. My understanding is half of what was discussed (and when they speak jargons with the likes of industrial bearings, I will be completely lost).
But I was happy to know – thanks to listening in to one of their conversations – that a neighbour’s water pump will break down sooner than the crooked-about-to-break ledge it was sitting on.
And I was proven right soon after.
