The fact is on a sub everyone repeated back every order that was made.
If they programmed that, I would go nuts.
A buddy of mine is a engineer for Amtrak. I've ridden with him a few times.
He has a buzzer that goes off every 12 seconds that he must cut off within 4 seconds or it sends a computer alarm to the big boss. Non stop for hours he must cut the buzzer off. Says he doesn't really hear it anymore...drove me nuts. One time we hit a car. I was like "aren't you gonna slow slam on the brakes." Must use standard procedures, so he just went through the motions and wham, and the entire time still hit that dang buzzer every time. Finally stopped about a mile down the track...lucky no one was in it.
