Getting Fit
At 17 I signed up and joined the Territorial Army and learned to look after all the kit. Included weapons, eating tools, and clothes. Apart from running around the Assault course 10 or 12 times a day, went up and down the hills near Stirling, Scotland, the UK in teams carrying a telegraph pole with a strip of leather round one wrist. Selected to be different heights and had to stand on your toes to keep the pole up. This only lasted 8 weeks and the Engineering Director wrote to the Commanding Officer requesting a discharge, because my skills were needed to work on Auto-Pilots for Fighter Jets.

Memories
Playing in the Hills Between 7 and 12, we went around as a group of 6 or 8 boys with 10 or 12 dogs. Spent our time exploring up the hills after school and for each the day at the weekend. The Pentland Hills are now a park 30 miles long by 20 miles wide. Looking South from Edinburgh.

Ethics and why they are important
First role In the last year of my apprenticeship the company I worked for failed to inform us that all 10 of us only needed to do the final year of the City & Guilds Technicians course to qualify for the 2nd year in the BSc Electronics degree course. This would have earned us Chartered Engineer status with the IEE the largest professional institute after IEEE in the USA.

Operations Management
Quora The platform message should be that questions are curated, and this aims to stop repeated questions that make no sense. Example "I have an idea" or "Why don't VCs respond to me". Both are not worth answering and distract users from helping. The phrasing of questions is essential.
