Top Ten Reasons To Work In The PCB Industry

After some consideration, I've compiled a list of what I believe to be the top ten reasons to work in the Printed Circuit Board industry.


10. Endless hours filled with the pure joy of CAM automation.
9. Capital equipment salesmen!
8. Your friends think printed circuit boards are "high-tech".
7. Gold plating your car keys.
6. You get to use digital file formats that were around when Jimmy Carter was president.
5. "Plasma desmear" is really fun to say at parties.
4. Sometimes you get to wear a lab coat AND a hairnet.
3. You can talk to your spouse about a broadside coupled differential impedence pair and get nothing but a blank stare.
2. You can talk to your boss about a broadside coupled differential impedence pair and get nothing but a blank stare.
1. You've always wanted to spend a few weeks in the Far East...

Lol, I like your list, it's really funny! It reminds me very much of working in the elctroplating industry. Especially point no. 4 & 7 ;-) Happy (acid copper) plating!
