I usually don't bitch about such stuff...but. When they built the new baseball stadium at LSU ( I know baseball but we outdraw all but 2 basketball teams in the NCAA in attendance for baseball games). Anyway a group of of fans who sat in in the outfied (yes they have stands all the way around...

Mitsubishi is the only engineering company (Mitsubishi Heavy Industries) to undertake making a carbon capture project design for making power plants meet new standards. We're building it now, according to the end customer nobody else bid on it with a bunch of "It will never work" shit thrown in...

This guy is confused apparently. Black college student Byron Thomas hangs Confederate flag in his dorm room window | Daily Mail Online

WG really screwed the pooch this time. Friday afternoon going into a 3x weekend they did something to their database. They blame it on poeple having a World of Warships account AND a World of Tanks forum. Basically for a lot of people they have no gold, no free xp. I had just purchased...

I wouldn't touch that shit with a 10 foot pole, not my kid - not my problem. Let CPS sort it out. Him hanging around your kid is bad enough.

A lot of time we are under time constraints. Many of our projects are fabricated while the design is being finished. Normally we capture a lot of the issues and they are incorporated in later drawings further into the project. LOTS of times a revision is a phone call saying revise all welds...

I dunno either. BMW's are made in the south, South Carolina.

No it can't. For one thing it's in our contract that we must "page turn" and that's what is in the contract to document the changes so we can bill for them as revisions. Another is we don't get electronic design drawings or engineering drawings from the customer or the engineering firm hired by...

There's only one bakery in New Orleans that makes all the french bread daily for true po-boys made on french bread. There rest are just sandwiches or whatever. They're not true po-boys. They start baking at 4am and make deliveries all day to various po-boy shops. Roast beef po-boys are nice...

Well part of document control will never be automated. They have to do a page turn and document what changed on each drawing for each revision. So 1000 drawings might hae 3 revisions total for each drawing. All that has to "page turned" and looked at and decide what was changed and document it.

Police chief in NY recently said it was too hard to hire blacks without a crimminal record.

My sister is flying in tomorrow so I get a real po-boy straight from po-boy country on real po-boy bread. Been thinking about it for 2 days now.

What what? I pluck the feathers on my deplucking machine and give her the whole canvasback and she cooks it with cornbread dressing all at once. Something similar to this. She makes the cornbread separate at first obviously. I don't have her recipe because it's "magic". Before anyone ask...

My mom had super low potassium and she was taken to the hospital via ambulance since she tought she was having a heart attack. I was there, it was pretty bad.

The few Tammy's I know are pretty fiery, but their all coon asses who run mostly men oriented businesses so they don't take any shit off anyone really.

I really don't know what the low end pays. I literally have no clue. My brother in law was a supervisor for 75 McDonalds for the local franchise (Baton Rouge, down to New Orleans and part of MS) and they couldn't hire people for minimum wage for years. He left 2 years ago ago and they started at...

Apparently before I got here and it falling into my department a lady quit after a few months and told the other VP (who was over that department at the time) that she didn't have enough people to talk to. JFC. I like it that way. Everyone has their own office. The only people on this whole side...

The title is document control. We'll see what shakes out this week. It's not demanding but we can't having PC's and PM's and 2 Vp's filling in to get the job done every day.

No idea, but there's a lot of pressure for the feds to raise rates. So if they raise it obviously rates go up. If they don't raise them it's because the bottom has fallen out again.

I mostly cook duck in mine. I dunno, none of the duck breat I cook have don't any fat on them, but I only cook wild duck. There are no legs or wings to speak of. Just 2 breast. Ummmm soo good. It's pretty much the only way I cook duck now. If I kill a canvasback I'll cook them whole. It's the...

We've tried direct hire in the past. People who are able to do the job feel it's below them even when we give them an above average pay. We had a a woman who was working out but soon she said that the work was "below" her. It's not mega intensive. We get revisions that come in over night. They...

From the FBI. Just being not black improves your odds of not being murdered a lot apparently.

New General Lee.

I didn't know tilapia was used for anything other than microwave/frozen fish you just reheat.

A lot of your post are showing up blank today.

I have an official title of VP of engineering and work as a Project Manager or Project Coordinator. I have a GED. I also have a BS/MS but I don't list it on my resume and nobody knows it since it's not related to my field. I kept the 2nd largest refinery in the US running until recently which...

We've had a string of them. You work on contract thru Aerote? In the petro chemical industry they pretty much have a shit reputation. The complaints I have heard was really centered around their recruiting and the people they send for an interview, not really how they treat people working for...

Jeremy Clarkson confirms he will host a new car show and will be joined by former 'Top Gear' mates - Yahoo Finance

They are related according to my grand mother who is the oldest person in the county now and knows EVERYONE and who they are related to. I have a feeling why, let's say there's a haves and have not deal going on in that county. The agent and the buyer are in the have not category. When my...

It's not that hard to find out who the owner is and what my number is in that location. I don't think they got it from the real estate agent, they were just pissed so they called.

Dead at 86.

So no tips on working with temp to hire? Quitting because they didn't get a permanent job after 2 weeks seems really odd/too fast to me.

I worked at home for 15+ years. Different deal I guess. I did shop drawings and 90% of the guys who did them worked at home. I never made a sales call in that entire time. Some shops might have one guy and he basically was to send out work and everyone else worked at home. Sorry no help. Shops...

My theory has always been we'll pay you what we think you are worth. If that doesn't work out we'll terminate you and find someone else. If that's too low for you so be it we'll keep looking. On another site a few others have said they were asked the same thing. I guess I'm in the super...

I have no idea if you just got your PE. I have only hired civil engineers who have 20-25 years of experience. It's a lot like how I got my job. I don't have an engineering degree and I run the engineering side of the business (I posted a pic in the SS thread yesterday) and work as PM. Working as...

My girlfriend works for UT and she couldn't tell you who they play on a given Saturday and I'm not sure if she could find the stadium of her job depended on it. Well I should say works at UT and not for UT. They created a partially privately funded group to tour stuff from the library because...

Gonna be a lot of that considering even the company that designed says it won't work and MIT was hired to study it and says NOPE.

It's not finished and not in service. The contractor and the state are in court and nobody will OK any more funds or a rate increase for the cusomters it serves. I didn't have anything to do with that one. It was a complete from the ground up new experimental coal fired plant. The one I'm...
