Hello Genghis,
No, I did my time at an establishment to the West that devoted most of it's time to lobbing highly expensive scrap at a great rate of knots into the Irish Sea.
I believe that Chief Engineers of a certain age had a standard phrase book with exhortations to encourage the green and cabbage like to greater things!
Myself I far prefer that syle and turn of phrase to the w*nk, ahem I mean buzz words of today.
