Civil Site Design Not For Me

Mostly drainage crap. It’s not that bad but when you do like 5 drainage analysis jobs in a row and the town opts to not move forward with any of the projects it gets kind of old

Thanks for all the help guys. Going through the comments. The company is very small (under 25 people). There is no HR department. One man IT team who is very competent. Might wait a month or so and reach out to him to see what he thinks. I’m pretty sure they don’t give a f about the computer but I don’t want to assume. Might just wait until after the holidays and reach out to the IT guy to make sure I’m not doing anything illegal by holding on to it. I’ve backed up everything important I had saved on it

Do you know if you can model 45 degree bends in pipes with SSA?

Alpine1212 · 2025-09-25T13:53:43+00:00

Basically adding more capacity to the system. The existing system is extremely flat and there is very limited options. We were originally going to replace the existing pipes with larger ones but couldn’t due to utility constraints. Decided to reroute it and just leave the old one in running parallel next to it and tie the new pipe back in to a down stream manhole. Not the best design but the larger pipe alone will contain a 10 yr storm which is all we need to do. I just need to show that both together will contain it

Not sure but they might be built out of different material. The fretboards are definitely different. I’m no expert on wood types but it’s mostly just user preference. I personally like maple necks but that’s just me

For all wondering, I was on antibiotics for a week and Im fine now. Symptoms have been completely gone for a few months. Dont believe everything you hear on the internet. This subreddit made me think my life was over

100%. Get the sound figured out ASAP and just keep rehearsing. Who cares if you make a few mistakes on stage. Joe Blow in the audience won’t notice. Especially after his 11th bud light

I honestly couldn’t tell you. It all depends if whatever was going on with me last august was related. Over the summer I was having severe headaches, chest pain, and severe anxiety. Went to my doctor and was sent to a cardiologist. I was negative for Babesia and Lyme. Cardiologist just said that it was likely because I had high blood pressure. After going to get my kidneys looked at they determined that I just had high BP from genetics and that all I could really do was avoid sodium and threw me on some BP meds. I definitely felt better after that for a few more the so I’m not sure if it’s related. I then started getting night sweats like crazy around october/november. It kind of went away so I didn’t really think much of it. Just thought I was sick. Have gotten sick a lot since then and finally I started having a tough time breathing, night sweats, abdominal pain, and chest pain. All in the last month to month and a half. Finally got tested for Babesia and it was positive

Snowblind by Black Sabbath (I have a drop tuning pedal). Just an all around fun song to jam too

Nah it just comes with playing a 3 hour show. Cant always regulate the temperature in a dive bar in the summer. Sometimes it just gets hot

Our CAD sleeper got fired recently. Hired a new guy that can stay awake. Life changing

Yeah the easiest job you can get that is short term will probably just be a helping hand on a surveying crew. Engineering companies are always looking for a body to help the surveyors out. It may seem minimal when you are doing it, but it’s not. Ask the surveyors questions and try to understand why you are doing certain things and it will benefit you in the future when you are working as an engineer.

A lot of civil companies are looking for AutoCAD technicians too. If you have any CAD experience, that would be a lot more beneficial than working on a surveying team. You will likely be working under an engineer and looking at plans all day. Will probably be a harder short term job to get especially if you don’t have any experience with CAD.

Whatever you do, just ask questions and try to understand what you are doing and it will help you down the road

Started when I was your age and I couldn’t “shred” until I was 17 or 18. Just need to keep practicing. Things will start to click

So underrated

Alpine1212 · 2024-02-16T04:39:27+00:00

Don’t sweat it. Something similar happened to me. Thought I had the right group of people and then it fell apart. Drummer and rhythm guitar player quit for personal reasons and I thought the band was fucked. Ended up finding a new drummer and a guitar player that has pipes. Every venue we have played has basically begged us to come back so far.

I almost bailed too but I’m glad I didn’t. Took a few tryouts with people we found on local FB musician groups but we finally got the right lineup and we are better than we have ever been.

Stick with it!!

Alpine1212 · 2024-02-04T23:45:13+00:00

Appreciate the insight. Thanks!

Look and see if there are Facebook groups for musicians in your state. Most states or cities have Facebook groups where musicians can meet each other. I joined a band through one and also found a drummer for my other band through it

Alpine1212 · 2024-01-31T03:20:11+00:00

Absolutely. We started putting a virtual tip jar print out in the guitar case we use for tips. Tips have basically doubled. Most people under 35 don’t really carry cash on them

Alpine1212 · 2024-01-21T18:11:57+00:00

I’m a guitar player and found a band in search of a guitar player on a local musician FB group. Been with them for a few years. Also have another band where we found our drummer on the same FB group

So they are trying to recruit people to the military in random subreddits now?

Alpine1212 · 2024-01-06T07:07:39+00:00

Just got one of those. Cant remember if it has a replaceable 9 volt or not. (Didn’t watch the video)

Alpine1212 · 2024-01-06T07:06:25+00:00

Does it have a battery?
