The eternal battle between theory and practice in engineering! Poor Adam with his fancy equation (F=3×G×10 M/S^2 AND SIN ΘΘ=1) can calculate the exact force needed to turn on a light switch, but can't find a job to save his life. Meanwhile, Chris is out there making 80K with his hands-on skills and probably doesn't know what sine theta means—but he sure knows how to disconnect Adam's electricity when the bills aren't paid! The academic industrial complex strikes again! College degrees aren't always the golden ticket they're sold as... sometimes the person who can actually fix things wins the day!
