I am looking for one of these boxes with a Z06 to ship to Thailand ... I should perhaps check IKEA 😂

The thought of having a Job of resolving a number of triangular pieces
into something round to fit into something square ... can be rather delicious. 😋

Yes! At the end you end up with only the problem of what to do with that empty square box - or back to square one.
 
I realized as a child that with a big enough hammer, those odd shaped pieces would ultimately fit in any shaped hole... Likely what led me into a career as an engineer....

Yup it may not be considered too much of a problem if one just gets paid to do it all over again 😁 💰

Ya ... although a few P.Eng. may not always like what my clients hire me for ...we can each have a Corvette and can share a road. 👍🏻

Not sure what you are pertaining to Sp. but be assured, although there are many in this discipline that think they are a cut above the rest, I am not one of them. I find people in all walks of life that remind me that many know much more than me.... no one knows everything ....and the ones that think they do have a lot to learn. Life lessons teach us more than any book or professor can. And yes... Corvette or not, I will share the road with everyone... :thumbs:

it is regarding the reference that relates to triangles being hammered into circles to fit into a square that may work and often has my day in negotiation with the P.Eng. consultants who I work with in order to maintain the integrity of plans that I propose. Fortunately it is not as often as when resolving sketch feedback from sales and marketing that miraculously make a toilet fit into any space by merely drawing it smaller. 🤣
I don't get to change the pieces to make it work - therefore ... off into left field with my “pizza into a box analogy”. 😂
In my food for thought 😋

But you can get round, square or heart shaped pizzas, why not a square or triangular toilet? 😄
 
Do things come in three ???

I graduated in 1980 with school being closed early (because of an Alberta teachers strike). Added to that having to find work in a stressed Oil Industry targeted by a Federal Trudeau Government.

40 years later the Oil Industry is stressed.
Targeted by a Federal Trudeau Government.
My only child graduates high school ... now closed early (although by covid19)

WoW ... being a proud 2020 Grad Dad is what matters 😁👍🏻
