The secret engineer

摘要

I would like to think my arrival here at Sleepy Hollow Electronics Limited, with the influx of new and exciting ways to do engineering that I brought with me, is seen as a breath of fresh air. For all I know it may actually be seen as a waft of something altogether more odious - one doesn't really like to ask about these sorts of things. Naturally though, I am not unaware of such possibilities and try to not be too overbearing; instead I try to be sensitive to the company's history, respectful of my colleagues' experience -and just generally avoid being a pain in the arse. Even so, it's difficult to judge as Sleepy Hollow has been through a strange, glacial-like organic change over a number of years. None of the ideas I have introduced and championed are cutting edge, they are all tried and tested. However, in this environment, they have the air of stupendous novelty. I fear that any attempt to introduce the truly radical could well result in a catastrophic rift in the fabric of reality, so this is something I've avoided so far.
