{SPEAKER name="Karl Heimberg"}
So there- there is

[00:14:39]
in my mind and I'm aware I'm subjective here

[00:14:44]
a discrepancy

[00:14:47]
in the engineering personnel

[00:14:51]
um you know I could mention

[00:14:55]
I have talked with some other people that when they hire a young engineer

[00:15:02]
they should first get them

[00:15:05]
in mechanics, learn how to work on a less -

{SPEAKER name="Michael Neufeld"}
Middle age

[00:15:13]
{SPEAKER name="Karl Heimberg"}
On a different machinery for a year.

[00:15:17]
Pay them, and have a contract,

[00:15:21]
that is, if they stay for 10 years they do not have to pay anything back. If they leave before,

[00:15:29]
they have to pay back

[00:15:31]
that year which the government had paid for them because that was educational,

[00:15:37]
educational deal uh,

[00:15:41]
nobody wants to hear anything about it

[00:15:43]
they say this is a subject of the government, not of us

[00:15:48]
We don't have to do it

[00:15:50]
{SPEAKER name="Michael Neufeld"}
So the - as far as you were concerned,

[00:15:53]
the American engineers have very little experi- graduate from University when they have engineering -

[00:15:59]

{SPEAKER name="Karl Heimberg"}
{{inaudible}}

[00:16:00]
{SPEAKER name="Michael Neufeld"}
have very little experi- practical experience when they come

[00:16:04]
{SPEAKER name="Karl Heimberg"}
Yeah, right

[00:16:06]
{SPEAKER name="Michael Neufeld"}
And the German system therefore, you think, gave a better background?

[00:16:10]
{SPEAKER name="Karl Heimberg"}
Yep, and I give you another example.

[00:16:12]
Which we had on the test, and y'know the young engineer

[00:16:18]
has to have a feel if you do that chart, how long does it take.

[00:16:24]
And our young engineers did not have that. So the mechanics

[00:16:29]
and electricians, they were always out for over-time

[00:16:34]
and we were unable to educate

[00:16:38]
the young men in a short time

[00:16:41]
to get the feel for it, how long does it take to do such and such and such [[??]]
