Quotes:
- "Jack of all trades. Master of none, but oftentimes better than just master of one. Yes, and, I get it. But it also means that not everyone, not all of us are going to be this jack of all trades that really are jacks of all trades, just because you get bits and pieces of everything." – Eduardo
- "I didn’t become complacent. If I can't understand how something works, it drives me nuts until I solve the problem." – Lia
- “You might be able to get units back online and get them working, but that doesn't mean you actually know what you're doing in reality, even as a control tech" – Eduardo
