i find this part of your statement
very ironic. build season is meant to give you a taste of what a real engineer does. i've been working at Lear corp. for the last couple months, and it is like build season, only more so. everything we build/modify is done on a deadline, ranging from a year, to a week (Example: i had to repair a10 year old tester last week in time for them to ship out modules on friday. i had 2 days to fix it, and a day to run 180 modules) what we're doing here in FIRST is a
very simplified version of what happens in the real world.
