I, as a programmer am gonna have to disagree with this point. I joined the team in out second year and we had about 7 people. Now that 7 has grown to about 22. The entire team works together as a whole and everything that is done is appreciated by every different aspect of the team. First is all about finding it in yourself to not just excel as a person but as a member of a team. The mechanical and electrical work just as hard as us programmers and everyone needs to understand that. We dont deserve special treatment because we make the brain work because without a functioning bod the brain is useless.
