Wasn't there an episode where they said it would take like 24 hours and they were told you have 12 so the tech replied with "that's now how it works sir it will take 24 hours"

I remember that at the beginning of Voyager. Janeway tries that on B'elana and she responds with something similar.

I love the difference between the 2 styles of engineering.

LaForge knows how to game the system.

Scotty knows how to play the people.

LaForge is the kind of guy that always ends up putting his team on crunch time, because he fails both to manage up, and to create buffers for estimation errors or unpredicted issues.

The actor who portrayed him was also RDA's stunt man in both SG-1 and MacGyver.

It became a lot more obvious when RDA greyed and Dan Shea didn't.

If you want to skip the validation cycle, we can have it done in 18, but we'll have a high chance of blowing up.
