I would be immediately reaching for a current limited
power supply, my multimeter, a signal generator, and my 'scope probe .

I have heard about being 'four armed' but it must be hard to find
shirts!
:)


Then you sir, must not be self-employed !!

Been there. Done that. Couldn't afford it as my soul[sic] means of support.

Now, I have a full time 'job', work part time in another industry, help my
wife do the same, help her with an on line store AND co-author books with
her in yet another field.

It is completely necessary
for any self-employed person to have at least four arms, and an iron
constitution so as to never get ill.

four-ti-tude!, and temper-ance

You must also have perfect eyesight
for looking at manufacturer's poor schematic prints and pdf's

Used to have fun fixing shipboard radio/radar equipment. Manual in
Japanese, crew from Norway.
Then there were the Greek ships with the boxes of 'used spare' tubes marked
65%, 75% .... etc.

, and a
degree in accountancy and book-keeping. A degree in sociology is also
helpful for dealing with customers, and a modicum of deafness is
desirable so that endless manufacturer's phone-hold music, does not wear
you down too much ... d;~}

And then there are the warranty claims.... getting billed for the parts by
the company and then getting the claim denied.

Oh, and don't forget the degree in law. You need it for small claims court
on the 'stop payment' checks.

Then there is licensing.
