Whether you work in computers or aviation, the importance of “smaller technological components” actually doing their job successfully is evident. If the heatsink on your laptop fails however, it’s a little less dramatic than the landing gear on a Southwest 737 failing. The point is though, that the little components are just as crucial – if not more so – than the bigger ones.
Now, take a look at this video of the landing gear failure on a Boeing 737 that happened just yesterday and remember, your job might suck but at least your boss can’t pin this one on you!
