It was a dark and dreary night.
Frustrated, I stared at the wiring diagram in my Basic Electronics textbook. Something was causing a severe roadblock to my understanding of the concepts. I felt inept, and feared I would never pass this required course for the general portion of my studies. Working the second shift in line maintenance, we had some downtime between flights. It was an excellent opportunity to catch up on homework for my Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) classes. But on this night, I was not getting it. Perhaps I could transfer to the ramp, work stores, or spend eternity as a helper. I needed help.
