James,
No one who responds to forum questions is paid for their service here. You are welcome to participate. Did you find the answers you were seeking about your initial question? Your recent post after three months does not seem directly related to the initial question. I am glad you want to share your knowledge. I hope you find opportunity to do so in these forums. If you have the answers, post it in this forum so others can learn from your experience. If you do not have the answers after three months, why not?
I will offer this advice to a young engineer starting out in the industry and trying to learn:
1) Don't publicly criticize things you do not understand. There is usually a reason behind procedures and rules and just because you do not understand the reasons does not make them stupid or evil. Dig deeper to find out 'why'. Involve a limited number of people in your investigation and expand the investigation if needed. Pronouncing judgement on something you are ignorant about is not good practice.
2) Don't ascribe evil motives to another without sufficient evidence. You cannot know what another person is thinking unless they reveal it. In general, others are not trying to get you to fail, they are not trying to steal your work, they are not hoping you will make mistakes.
3) If your actions/work/speech/writing is criticized, be grateful. It is extremely difficult to get someone to offer an honest critical opinion. There is great value in an honest appraisal even where there is disagreement on its legitimacy.
