00:00.360 --> 00:02.210
- Everyone here is
pretty smart I would say.

00:02.210 --> 00:03.650
Everyone here is really nice.

00:03.650 --> 00:04.483
I just think that there aren't

00:04.483 --> 00:05.930
enough of us for everybody to meet.

00:05.930 --> 00:08.450
I am A1C Alan Arellano.

00:08.450 --> 00:09.910
I work in PMEL,

00:09.910 --> 00:12.060
Precision Measurement
Equipment Laboratory.

00:12.060 --> 00:14.600
We research everything and
anything that comes our way.

00:14.600 --> 00:16.090
If we have to do something simple,

00:16.090 --> 00:17.140
like a torque wrench,

00:17.140 --> 00:18.880
I can tell you everything
about this torque wrench

00:18.880 --> 00:20.060
that there is to know.

00:20.060 --> 00:22.280
Everything about any
like piece of electronics

00:22.280 --> 00:23.113
that comes in here,

00:23.113 --> 00:24.090
I have to know everything about it

00:24.090 --> 00:24.960
before I can touch it.

00:24.960 --> 00:26.970
Pretty much every corner of maintenance

00:26.970 --> 00:29.070
has us like their safety net.

00:29.070 --> 00:30.880
It's very detail-oriented

00:30.880 --> 00:32.770
so it did take a lot of time to learn.

00:32.770 --> 00:34.800
It's a lot of reading, it's
a lot of time training,

00:34.800 --> 00:36.480
it like requires a ton of experience.

00:36.480 --> 00:38.240
It's like non-stop research.

00:38.240 --> 00:40.630
I'm writing to engineers all the time

00:40.630 --> 00:41.940
and like articulating ideas

00:41.940 --> 00:44.900
is probably the more
challenging part of it all

00:44.900 --> 00:47.220
because simplifying a
really complex message,

00:47.220 --> 00:49.410
conveying that so that
anybody can understand it,

00:49.410 --> 00:50.280
that's hard.

00:50.280 --> 00:51.240
Come to PMEL.

00:51.240 --> 00:54.093
It's the best job in the
Air Force if you can get it.

00:54.950 --> 00:58.679
