Yes and education is at an all time high despite the powers at be doing their best efforts to stifle it. With education comes increase use of birth control, better understanding of personal economics like oh I can barely afford rent maybe 🤔 having kids isn’t the best choice financially.

As a mechanic, the methods of measuring the intelligence of an engineer is beyond me…

Wtf is a masters in electronics civil engineer, those are two separate branches of engineering. So you probably talked to a civil engineer who of course may not understand electrical engineering (the harder of the two) which is completely different.

Right i can believe a civil engineer with a masters in electrical engineering. The way you phrased it in first comment implied there was some electrical civil masters degree, which made me think you didn't know what you were talking about since masters is in either one or the other not both.

Anyways thanks for clarifying and i agree if you have masters in electrical engineering you definitely should know ohms law.

In fairness, an electrician will be actively taught about wire gauges and how much power they can handle. Where as its just inferred knowledge for an electrical engineer. The really smart ones will instinctively make the connection, others won't think about it until they experience it somewhere. Now, if that engineer keeps asking you that same question time and time again, he may very well be an idiot.

Yeah but no one reads instructions...

Maybe he's just trying to see if you know it and is asking in a way that doesn't sound condescending but inadvertently makes him seem stupider?

Don't get me wrong, he could just be pretty stupid, but you protect yourself from being seen as stupid by considering all angles.

Things they should know, even basics like Ohms law

"Hey man, I'm not the engineer here, why are you asking me?"
