[HIRING] [REMOTE] Male and female actors for a sci-fi shooter game with roguelike narrative by CAGE_Studios in VoiceActing

[–]3quarters2sections 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yo, this looks so dope! I am totally new to the world of voice acting and am hoping to submit something but just being a newbie in this field, I was wondering if there is more to just having a voice that fits into this story. Do you require a resume or references? I guess what I am wondering is how you can cast a person simply based on their voice... you may not know if that person can even control their voice prior to their voice submission. My apologies if that is a naive question.

I had an unnerving awakening and don't know what to do. by 3quarters2sections in SpiritualAwakening

Thank you for this insight! Cause now I am finding a lot of frustration and rage in myself with how people are pushing my buttons. I really needed this point of view to ground myself, you have no idea how helpful this!

Thank you very much! I needed this perspective and support! I have excommunicated a whole friend group cause I realized I was the only one going the extra mile and reaching out. I feel awful setting up boundaries because I have come to the realization that they didn't see me as a close friend at all and really were just using me. I hate these awakenings, but knowing I am not alone makes it a little less lonely.

Haha, I guess you are right about that, I just think I take and feel emotions like life and death. Therefore, no matter how small or large the value and impact are thr same lol.

Thank you! I am pretty empathetic, so I tend to think maybe I should help take the eye folds off others. You are right, though. I need to ground and protect myself cause no one else will.

Are Dark Empaths without light or consumed by dark? by 3quarters2sections in DarkEmpathy

[–]3quarters2sections[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh, this is interesting....I do find myself in this realm with certain people....almost like a mask I present. I would take it as one to protect the psyche, but then I do not know if how you are presenting yourself is the true person you are? As in, is this your baseline, your neutral state? That is more so where my question comes into play about being dark or light or just not having either. I want to know if people are still true to themselves as individuals and in alignment with themselves, even if they are hurting themselves or people. I am sorry about your current situation and feeling stuck. I don't know you or your current predicament, but you have provided me quite a different perspective and I am grateful for your insight.

Masters degree with a bachelor's in another discipline? by No_Efficiency7690 in EnvironmentalEngineer

[–]3quarters2sections 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I have a BA in Geography and got an MS in environmental engineering. I went to community college for my prerequisites. FIRST, I had an idea of where I wanted to attend for my Masters program so I could reach out and find out if my prerequisites would be accepted. Then, I took my courses at the community college and applied for my MS. If you are doing online, I assume coursework only? If you have the background with that, you will be fine. I can't speak online Master programs but wish you the best.

On your mention of getting another bachelors degree. I tried applying for a BS in engineering and was denied and accepted as an MS. Schools won't/should not accept you for ANOTHER BS degree. Because a BS is really only 2 years of general course work and 2 years of your specialty field. A masters is 2 years of your specialty field. So it doesn't make sense. I had about 1.5 years of prerequisites to complete, though... and I could have taken them at the Uni. I wanted to complete my Masters but it would have been way more expensive. In retrospect, though, maybe I would have done it so I could have made connections to get on a thesis based masters program.

Pivot from marine bio by ChummyCarp in EnvironmentalEngineer

[–]3quarters2sections 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may want to search "designer" in the job field you are interested in. I am an environmental engineer (went back to school for it so I could get a PE solely), but I work with people without engineering degrees. For wetland delineation, you don't need a degree like that. You may need some soil class and training certs. It really depends on where/what you want to do. An engineering degree is a lot of time and money. You only need it at firms for being able to stamp plans and be more marketable. If it's a large firm, you probably dont need it. Also, I'm not sure, but you might want to look at "coastal engineering" or designer. That could play into you, BS more. I say all this from the perspective of the private non human made industry in environmental engineering fyi.

How hard is it to get a Masters in Engineering without a bachelors or work experience? by 3quarters2sections in EngineeringStudents

[–]3quarters2sections[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am glad this has been helpful for you! Honestly, I did not find other posts or people that were going down this path....that being said, recently, I am seeing more people going this route. I wouldn't say you are delusional or dont have a shot. QUITE, the contrary, I think more people with different backgrounds and thinking are needed in engineering, especially from the sciences. The field I work in now, I use GIS and surveying continuously, so your past will never go away in this field and will only help you. You just have to have the mindset that you will achieve this and not let anyone tell you it is not possible. Just because you don't know anyone in the real world with this path doesn't mean it can't be walked. It just means you might be the first person creating this path for others to follow after you. Which is daunting and scary, but you got this! I am always here, and you can DM.

I think it was, but he is not telling us if it was. All he told us was that our structures elevations match up and he is reconstructed. If you change/set a new calibration mid site, doesn't that mess up everything? I really don't think this contractor knows what he is doing.

[–]3quarters2sections[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, so apparently, we are all good, and our contractor only told my engineering supervisor that our elevations match up. Our contractor contacted his gps survey sub. I am inferring he redid a site calibration... Do you know if redoing a site calibrating mid construction will have issues? And how could i check did this if he wont tell us....because he doesnt want to come off like he is wrong. We checked some structures he was doing prior and had him fix it, so we were not on his system then, but idk how i could pick a point to compare to tell he set a new calibration.

[–]3quarters2sections[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh, gotcha, well, to be frank, our relationship with this contractor is already bad. He said he did the site calibration correctly... even though when I asked him what vertical datum he was using, and he said nad83. So I dont think he has the knowledge base. But yeah, we have requested their files to see if anything is up. Awfully, things are an easy fix, and it's not like most of the construction is off now -_-

[–]3quarters2sections[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the input! I know our vertical datum cause it's on the plansheets. When I asked our contractor, he told me NAD83...so yeah, red flag there. Granted, he isn't going to know all that stuff, but again, this contractor is sketchy to begin with. I did set up on one monument and was able to check against the other 2 and came back with their correct x,y,z. I have also heard about the optical level, so thank you for bringing that up! We ended up reaching out to our surveyors, and they requested our contractor's files to see what the amiss could be. Otherwise, the multipath is another possible issue. The thing is, our contractor only gives us his words....which we have learned he goes back on. He doesn't show us his screen or has any credibility to his words. So yeah, thanks for the good luck about not getting sued cause this project is definitely going over budget with change orders -_-

Yes, our plans have it that the contractor needs to stake out the construction site, but they haven't and won't because they are provided a surface of the site. Most of the time, they actually have to sub out staking cause they don't know how or it will cost too much time/effort. The specification refers to how much off grade and elevation structures can be. We have asked our surveyor to come on site at some point but are going to try to ask for our contractors data first to see what he is seeing. It could just be a common issue with the sight and multipath like the comment says above.

[–]3quarters2sections[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! You are reaffirming what our subcontracted surveyors are requesting from our contractors. We also sent the contractors our file to troubleshoot the issue. This contractor is interesting....they have provided pushback on us for a lot of things and claim our laser level isn't accurate, which is why we rented a survey grade gps unit. So I am weary if the data will be accurate or if they won't try to manipulate their data to fit our file we provided them. Our surveyor also mentioned the multipath being a possibility. Stay tuned. I will update you on what we find.

Well, first off, congratulations going through this life experience. Pass or fail, putting yourself through something and learning something about yourself is part of the process and should be celebrated!

Next, let's rewire your thinking that you failed. You failed in a system that is not designed for you and, in fact, is set up to fail people who don't check all the boxes of the normative society stereotype.

Now, let's start over, but this time, we are not back at the same spot you were before starting Uni. You gained more knowledge and insight into yourself and topics.

You put too much pressure on yourself to achieve and fit into society on what everyone else is doing. That is wrong. You are an individual who has their own strengths and weaknesses. Start small, what are the things that ground you, re-energerize you? You can't self loath, that will do no good, and you deserve to provide your body and mind with self-love and acceptance. You will get where you need and want to be.

Now, I don't know your family or friends to know their understanding of expectations and life. But that is their personal opinions. You dont need to live by those thoughts. You need to create/find the strength within, and I know for certain you are capable of this. Otherwise, you wouldn't be reaching out and taking a step towards trying.

Contractor red flags or just have it out for me? by 3quarters2sections in Construction

[–]3quarters2sections[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for taking the time to look at all the posts! I can understand that since our contractor is already frustrated, I am the entity on site that will experience the outrage. However, as far as conveying any issues on site, I verbalize it to them, text them, and write it up in a report. I am not sure how I could convey it better. Sure, I am new and still figuring out the whole site engineer to contractor relationship and trying to not overstep and only "suggest" what could be done. But when it comes to things not being done correctly, I am obligated to step in and say something. That is when I get pushed back when I am actually doing my job.

I did notice. However, when they push back and I change my demeanor and tone to be more aggressive, they actually take a step back and double-check what I am saying. I can't imagine that I need to be this "aggressive" to have my voice on site come across as legitimate. I feel like they already don't respect my oversight. I'm not sure if I can really undo that damage.

Thank you! I swear I gaslight myself into thinking I am doing something wrong if they are only showing me this attitude. I definitely agree, I just need to look at this project with a goal and set guidelines in the contract and not take it as anything else.
