> Engineers use reliable and predictable statistical process control methods to ensure mass produced parts work together under a well defined standard

Last year I took a job from a surprisingly big car manufacturer. They had designed and built a 2 million dollar glue dispensing machine. Only after it was fully assembled did they realize that they didn't have a way to get the glue into it. They needed it to be running the next week. Engineers run into bugs all the time, we just don't get convenient error messages.
