Over-used Engineering Terms

Here is my Top 5 list of words that I feel are over-used in the die engineering community. In order,

1. Robust

2. Optimize

3. Checklist

4. Benchmark

5. Psychobeotch

Yes, psychobeotch is all the rage. While hearing “robust” makes me taste vomit, “psychobeotch” gives me a Fatal Attraction tingle.

Alltop. Seriously?! I got in?

  1. “BENCHMARK a PSYCHOBITCH to OPTIMIZE CHECKLISTs for ROBUST design”

  2. You should take a holistic approach.

  3. oh Danny – that IS good. Eric’s comment may be robust, but yours is certainly optimum.

    Nice job Eric. If this was bingo, you would win. And I knew you would nail something like that in a way that only a Michigan Tech grad could.

    Thanks for reading and playing along!
