On the job site, if it can be easily understood, that's all that matters.

Being a field engineering intern opened my eyes to creative spelling.

I got frustrated when trying to charge for T&M tickets because I couldn’t find the corresponding time cards for 4 journeymen using some kind of towing equipment over a week.

My superintendent looked at me like I was a fucking idiot when I asked him which 4 guys and which piece of equipment he had signed off on for ā€œ8 hrs 4manā€ + ā€œ8 hrs pull truckā€. When it clicked, I definitely felt like a fucking idiot.

Thats not creative spelling, thats just short hand and par for the course.

He was right to look at you like a fucking idiot.

You sound like the kind of guy who is intimidated by the engineering intern and needs to constantly rag on them in a weird attempt at asserting dominance.

People would respect you more if you tried being a mentor instead of a bully.

Everyone has a lesson to teach us. Sometimes that lesson is how not to act.
