your technician your partner your friend
Believe in cold and unemotional justice. Believe in the humbling of the guilty by due process of the law.
"Do as be done by. The rest is commentary" ... meaning that an entire body of law (... beginning with the Ten Commandments) can be summarised in these five words.
"Live and let live" is as good a mantra as any.

After forty years working in the engineering support of medical equipment, and in new hospital projects both in the design office and "at site", I now consider myself semi-retired. Following army service in Hong Kong, UK, Germany and Saudi Arabia, I worked in Saudi Arabia (a further four times), Nigeria, Jordan, Oman (twice) and the UK Health Service. My earning skills have included hands-on installation, repairs, maintenance, inspections and technical support of medical equipment. Together with advising on biomedical engineering generally, planning equipment layouts, producing equipment listings, writing specifications, and assisting architects etc. These days I live as simply and cheaply as I can, and (as far as possible) on my own terms, keeping my hand in by repairing or refurbishing medical equipment or doing inspections and maintenance work, sometimes for charity groups. But what I enjoy most is developing computer software, as a quirky and obsessive coder happy to be immersed in thorny problems for months at a stretch. "Free as a bird", and without any permanent address (generally moving on from time to time), I still jog as often as I can.
