As for the whole swearing being not that great for many reasons, this is a proper place to tout the GP flag: Act as though your grandmother were watching, and all will be well. If a situation is hectic/stressful enough to warrant swearing in front of a grandmother, then by all means, fire at will. But otherwise, express yourself in a professional manner, based on surroundings and conversation. We're a group of engineers (or wanna be engineers...), we should be able to self regulate this issue on our own. Oh wait, we already do.

I am fortunate enough to work for an engineering firm that doesnt care who says what, when. However, we are mature enough to know when to let loose and when to think twice and speak once.
Having said that, I apologize if I offended anyone at BMR..
