The One Minute Manager, The One Minute Teacher, The One Minute Leader, The One Minute &#8230;. uh no.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I never did see a book for the One Minute Engineer. So I decided to write one and did, it took me about a minute. Couldn&#8217;t get a publisher in the one minute I tried so I&#8217;m doing a one minute post. I have this information and I also have early onset so if I don&#8217;t get this out in one minute, its gone forever.<\/p>\n<p>We are going to concentrate on Chemical Engineering! Wow, ok, ready, there are four lessons. Don&#8217;t worry, all four lessons take about a minute! This will be quick <strong><em><span style=\"color:#ff0000;\">and it will change your life<\/span><\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lesson 1<\/strong> &#8211; What you need to know is that any type of chemical facility, whether it is a refinery or a chemical plant consists of only two types of equipment (and of course interconnecting piping). These two types of equipment are: LRO&#8217;s and TST&#8217;s. We are done! Wow, review if you feel the need.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/yogisden.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/Sphere.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322456996677516754\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 278px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/yogisden.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/Sphere-300x208.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><strong> Lesson 2<\/strong> &#8211; Notice the picture above. It is a LRO. LRO stands for <strong><em><span style=\"color:#3333ff;\">Large Round Object<\/span><\/em><\/strong>. Got it? Need to go over that. OK! Great, you are doing wonderfully. Congratulations. These are very important for the proper functioning of any chemical facility. You are halfway done to a Chemical Engineering Education.<\/p>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/yogisden.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/Distillation-Columns.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322456994943005378\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 250px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 329px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/yogisden.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/Distillation-Columns-227x300.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><strong> Lesson 3<\/strong> -Now pay attention, we are stepping up here. The above equipment are TSTs. TST&#8217;s are <strong><em><span style=\"color:#3333ff;\">Tall Shiny Things<\/span><\/em><\/strong>. Go ahead and repeat. These are also necessary for the proper and safe operation of a refinery or chemical plant or whatever else you want to build. OK, you are ready for the final lesson.<\/p>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/yogisden.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/Refinery-Picture.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322456994964972098\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 263px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/yogisden.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/Refinery-Picture-300x197.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a> <strong>Lesson 4<\/strong> &#8211; This is the wrap up, so pay attention. This is where all your hard work comes together. What you do to build a chemcal facility is arrange all your <strong>LRO<\/strong>s and <strong>TST<\/strong>s into a pleasing configuration. This is where all your design and composition skills come into play. Like above, the tension between the tall and skinny and the short and round against the cloudy sky. Cannot beat that. Oh yes, make sure that the guys and gals you hire to run the thing know how to connect the LRO&#8217;s and TST&#8217;s together.<\/p>\n<p>We are not done! We have graduation. Below is your reward. Not a diploma, something better, a T shirt! Aren&#8217;t you glad you did this? I am. Thanks very much and I wish you much success in your new career.<\/p><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322457961119536546\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 369px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 409px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/yogisden.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/kiss-me-tshirt-300x300.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-size:78%;\">Thanks Dave for the inspiration.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Remember all the &#8220;One Minute&#8221; books way back when.
