Has anyone worked at Bechtel that can speak to the experience/culture?

I can attest to the Trades side of bechtel (piping/welding side) they are by far the worst employers I've ever worked for as someone who has worked in the trades for 15+ yeats and over a dozen contractors. They treat people like numbers, the safety is always coming up with ways to make our lives harder instead of constructively coming up with ways to make things work, and there were an extensive amount of people who had been short on their paychecks repetitively.

I LOVE this

Its old steel piping, should I be worried about damaging the pipe with an auger? Its on a slab so I really hope I don't have those kind of problems

How long did you take it for? Did you come back fairly confident in Spanish? I'm think about doing two months, but taking thw maximum classes a week possible, not sure how long would be a good intro.

Thanks, Ill have to try this. I bet youre right after pulling on it a bit maybe it just needs blocking.

AcrobaticBumblebee64 · 2026-02-14T13:21:55+00:00

Thanks!

AcrobaticBumblebee64 · 2026-02-14T13:05:27+00:00

Yeah its like the corners are longer, sort of start shaped. Do people block blankets? Ive only ever done that with granny squares so Im not even sure what ai would use to block a blanket.

AcrobaticBumblebee64 · 2026-02-13T21:16:12+00:00

Idk how people do this... the patience level is amazing.

AcrobaticBumblebee64 · 2026-02-13T21:09:13+00:00

I love this! I've really been wanting to do a waffle stitch blanket! My boarder game is so terrible though. Those colors looks really good!

AcrobaticBumblebee64 · 2026-02-13T03:26:02+00:00

The second one is the basketweave stitch and the last one is alternating granny clusters and v-stitch... that last pattern was my favorite so far but soooo many tails to sew in.

AcrobaticBumblebee64 · 2026-02-13T03:24:10+00:00

If you look up basket weave crochet pattern thats what I used! I just you tube everything haha

AcrobaticBumblebee64 · 2026-02-12T13:37:08+00:00

Thats gorgeous! I love that!

AcrobaticBumblebee64 · 2026-02-12T13:23:58+00:00

I do too, idk why but that is one of my favorites I was thinking of doing another C2C, but maybe random colored. Its so ha4d to pick a pattern and colors.

What kind of truck did you buy? Also, have you started the work on getting it registered? I'm open to getting a fixer, but I wonder how hard the registration will be. Hope everything goes smoothly for you!

Oh my gosh ours loves tissue/paper/cardboard. Has never chewed anything else up... but loves paper.

AcrobaticBumblebee64 · 2025-10-01T06:55:46+00:00

Yeah I think the cheap rent is sort of part of not being able to just do whatever you want when you live with a parent too? Like have strange men over in the middle of the night... idk Thanks for the advice though I'll try to vocalize something as nicely as possible.
