The Glorified Plumber

The Glorified Plumber

Valve operation. Those two words are reverberating in my ears for quite sometime. It consumes a major part of the vocabulary of the people around me. Partly because, valves are an inevitable entity in any process industry, which controls the flow of fluids. But it is mainly because of the frustration of the blue-collar valve-operating engineers whose white-collar software counterparts are sitting a in an air-conditioned office, in a rainbow-coloured cubicle, working on a computer, emailing pictures of fancy training centres and good-looking females, and boasting of their upcoming or ongoing visits to the US. Whereas the blue-collared ones are working in shifts, in extreme climates, wearing grease and oil coated clothes and operating valves.
Chemical engineers feel it a bit derogatory to operate valves in a plant. Just as one need not be a mechanical engineer to drive a car or to repair it, one need not be a chemical engineer to run a plant or to repair it. On the other hand, just as a blockhead can break a car down with his driving or trying a hand at the repair, an improper valve operation can blow up a plant.

The show begins when a valve needs to be operated. Operation means it needs to be either opened or closed, either completely or partially in both cases, just as you open and close a household tap. A friend of mine explained like this to his mom: 'You know the tap on our wash basin? A valve is the same thing, only it is bigger, dirtier and more harder to turn.' A valve could be a manually operated valve or it could be a control valve. A control valve is not generally operated by humans. You have pressurised air, pressurised water or electricity to do that job. Blessed be those who invented the control valve for they have saved countless hours of manual labour. If it is a control valve, the worry is less because it can be operated either by a mouse click or a keyboard stroke from the control room. But if it is a manual valve, the fun begins. The instruction to operate a valve comes from the plant control room as the field operators generally don't take the initiative to avoid inviting comments of being over smart. When the control room instruction is from a reasonably behaved person, you usually go and do the job. But if the instruction is from a dumb-witted moron who gives it to emphasise their superiority or to create a havoc by their consistent barks, you just wait. And reply, 'I'll do it' or 'I'm doing it' or the more popular 'I'm on my way' when you actually relax and wait for the requirement of valve operation to subside. But finally when the control room operator screams on the walkie-talkie, 'C'mon, move your ass. Open the bloody valve, god-dammit.' you get up from your field cabin and move towards to valve. Every step seems so long as you approach the valve. You drag your feet, jump over pipes, climb the monkey ladder and reach the valve. Just when you start opening the valve you realise that the valve wheel is covered with grease and dirt. Then you think of using a cotton hand gloves, which should have been resting in your pocket. But when in need it, it is always back in your cabin. Then you descent all the way down through the monkey ladder, to fetch a pair of gloves.

When you start opening the valve with gloves, you realise that your muscle power is insufficient to open a the valve. Thus starts a hunt - the hunt for the most valued tool in field known as the valve-key. A valve-key is to a valve just as a spanner is to a nut. The valve-key helps you extend the diameter, giving the mechanical advantage, so that with less torque you can open a valve. Valve-keys are generally kept on a valve-key stand at a known place. But as it usually happens, the valve-key will never be there. You start searching for the valve-keys in the field. It is usually during this time, the scream comes from the control room, 'What the eff are you doing? Why the hell are you not opening the valve?' Then, for the first time, you reply the truth, 'Gimme a sec, I'm searching for valve-keys.' Surfing in the field, you find a valve-key lying as an orphan below some pump, smiling at your misfortune. You fetch the valve-key, wear you gloves and climb the monkey-ladder to try again. But as you already guessed, it so happens that the size of valve key never fits the valve. Now you are frustrated to the core that you won't feel like going back and searching the right size. So you invent methods of locking the wrong-sized valve-key to the wheel and open it. And if it so happened that you found a proper sized valve key, the curved portion should be pointing upwards while opening, and pointing downwards while closing. Even though you have done it a thousand times, the first time attempt you always lock it wrong.
You open the valve with the wrong-sized valve-key in a locking position you just invented. Just when you begin to wonder whether the effect of valve opening has started to show, there shouts the control room, 'What the heck? Do it slowly! Don't you know what will happen?' Then you steer a bit left left, steer a bit right, to finally arrive at the required flow rate.

This evolved valve standard operating happenings happens all the time. It sometimes has some deviations. Sometimes one of your sadistic supervisors pass by, sees you opening the valve and comments, 'Your experience can be judged by the way open a valve.' boasting his experience. That is when the chauvinist in you wakes up, and you say, 'True. I was not taught to open valves in college.' Or when you reach the valve in the first step, you see the valve has no hand wheel. Or the gearbox has been removed. Then instead of the hunt for the valve-key, it is for the variable wrench. In yet another instant, for a not-particularly-beautiful, not-so-coloured, beautifully-named, butterfly valve, you discover a missing quarter pin. If it was broken, chances are that it was broken before and you can find those pieces lying around. And if those lying around pins do not fit, you finally insert a welding rod and operate the valve

The worst part is the malfunctioning of the boon called control valve. Sometimes, it just gets bored of being remotely controlled and thus one fine shift, stops working. Poor thing. How long can it be a puppet with some jackass pulling the strings. It stops working calling for some personal attention. To operate a control valve manually, which is accustomed to remote operations, is bit of a job. Find the lever that changes the mode from automatic to manual, try turning with hand wheel, or extra efforts with valve-keys, spanners and variable wrenches. Whatever you do, whichever be the type, in the first attempt it never opens.

Valve operation is thus an art in itself. One of my ex-bosses once commented on the dilemma of chemical engineers becoming a glorified plumber, "You are not paid for the valve you operate. You are paid for the responsibility you undertake. You are paid for the knowledge of knowing which valve to operate and how to do it." Merely looking at the manual labour, one shouldn't dishearten. Valve operation needs meticulous planning, adroitness and a bit of killer instinct. To identify the type of valve, tools to open it, ways to approach it, applying the right torque and so on to get the precise flow rate with the least amount of effort. May be you don't need to be a chemical engineer to operate a valve. But the planning, precision and the foresight of the effects with which a chemical engineer operates it, is unparalleled. Amen.

Today, I would like to share with you 8 life lessons that Mother Teresa has taught us all and which, especially in times of difficulty, we should try our best to live up to:

1) People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centred; forgive them anyway.

2) If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway.

3) If you are successful, you will win some false friends and true enemies; be successful anyway.

4) If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; be frank and honest anyway.

5) What you spend years building, someone may destroy overnight; Build anyway.

6) If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway.

7) The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway.

8) Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you have got anyway.

Be like Mother Teresa. Be content that you cannot solve every problem, help every person or win every battle. However, do not let this stop you from giving your best in everything you do.

about me:

Introduction
This Software Requirement Specification (SRS) document gives in detail all the requirements to have some acquiantance with Software 'ME'. It will form the basis for designing, developing & implementing the decree of frendship with the concerned software 'ME'.

Origin: Venus
(All Men Belonged to Mars n Women were on Venus b4 they decided to go on a picnic (unfortunately at concurrent time) at the beautiful planet called Earth n decided to settle down there only!! No??Well....who believes Darwin anyway! :D)

Location
The perfuntory system ME is being dealt with by junta at KEC,Dwarahat with the support of associated faculties. (Like ?? C'mon how on earth u sense a fellow Hu...Software?).The 'good-for-nothing' processing system at YGH(Yamunotri girls Hostel ) is although computerized but available on obsolete technology i.e. MTW KOBOL( Much time wasting_KEC -oriented-Bol ) under 'Serenexx' environment which needs to be changed for compatibility and support.

Operating environment
Hardware platform -
Recides on a very cute system with Chubby Cheeks n Hard-to-manage hair. Known about for midget stature n her complementary choice;)(??)

Processor: Processing speed is remarkably slow.The system often tries to buy some xtra 'clock cycles' by using the pet user defined statement "Main Kya Kah Rahi Thi?" while trying to fetch the OPCODE for the next instruction.;D .There are no I/O buffers to enqueue the instructions so the system often forgets what instuction she was executing and the default SLEEP sub program is called.The system was designed for a multi-tasking environment but she switches on to a new task moments after starting the first one leading to a long queue of unfinished tasks.The queue is processed with FINO Algorithm(First In Never Out) and finally stored in secondary memory with the label 'things-i-wish-to-do.

Software components -
Front End: HTML.(Hyper tense n Motive less)
JAVA SERVER PAGES for server side programming.
DBMS:MYSQL.(My Strewn_Quagmire_coz_of_Lassitude)
NOTE: Though the database is updated (only the date changes:D) on a regular basis,more often the queries for data are not well entertained.This can be easily observed on the working environment of 'Examination Hall' under the threat of virus named XAMOPHOBIA. Also, due to some faults in Database connectivity the system's IVI (Interactive verbal Interface) is sometimes unable to recollect important data ,usually Names, and uses the keyword 'Vo'.For example "Aaj maine 'vo' movie dekhi or Ab mujhe 'Vo' novel padhna hai.



WeB SERVER: APACHE LUVCAT( The system loves cats..aah! they all are sho cute..arn't they??)

Finally,No SRS can specify the system in totality and Readers are appreciated to learn further about 'ME' by xperiencing the bond of frenship.

Well

i shud say it is the total acceptace of all that u'r better half is... unconditional and selfless as it can be! Whom with i can dream of a family for eternity... beyond this physical realm.....

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream--and not make dreams your master,
If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings--nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much,
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son!


--Rudyard Kipling

A person, full of certitude with Amicable personality, Sagacious by profession, arduous towards any work and have cogent attitude for each and every thing.

"Every person who wins in any understanding must be willing to cut all sources of retreat. Only by doing so can one be sure of maintaining that state of mind known as a burning desire to win - essential to success"

"When things go wrong as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all uphill, When funds are low and debts are high, And you want to smile but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest, if you must, but don't you quit...Don't give up till mercy"

"The miracle, or the power, that elevates the few is to be found in their industry, application, and perseverance under the prompting of a brave, determined spirit."

Now something really personal about me:
Others see me as sensible, cautious, careful and practical. They also see me as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. I am not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but I am that who's extremely loyal, having cool attitude to friends that I do make and who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know about me realize it takes a lot to shake my trust in them, but equally that it takes for me a long time to get over it if that trust is ever broken.
Sometimes,I get sudden outbursts of anger and get out of control, I become another person and nothing can stand in your way. I am always curious and responsive to changes. Routine life is not the way I choose to live. Traveling and playing chess are my favorite hobbies because excitement is what you are after. I never stand around the one whom I dislike. My love comes and goes quickly. My strengths are seasoned and original. My weaknesses are rash, impatient and self-rigorous.
