The following text is reprinted with permission from "The Unwritten Laws of Engineering" by W.J. King, originally appearing in the May, June, and July 1944 issues of Mechanical Engineering. That the article has been reprinted several times during the last 36 years should bear witness to its usefulness. It offers much wisdom to young engineers starting their careers, and to older engineers who know these things perfectly well but who all too often fail to apply them in practice.
