I just received a resume.

degree and about 2.54 years experience doing technical writing and
3.79 years experience doing some engineering and CAD.''

What kind of ME is that, using only _2_ decimal places when he coulda

Goodonya, Mikey. PRECISION ill-fitting parts!


That was on the electronics side, so just five places is low
precision.
