My project manager at one of my corporate jobs was a project manager at Lockheed who worked on the space shuttle. My engineering kung fu was absolute shit, and she destroyed my design and implementation plan, threatening to get me tossed from the project for incompetence. My direct boss, who was an engineer/architect for the first in-flight consumer wireless broadband for jets, took me under her wing, and helped me submit something the project manager could use. My degree was in math, not engineering, so my corporate experience made me the engineer I am today.
