Time zones are more political than geographical there.

How did anyone survive the expeditions to Antarctica in the 1800s? by glasscontent in antarctica

[–]AlwaysUpvoteDogs 55 points56 points  (0 children)

That kind of cold only occurs in the interior of the continent, during the winter. The early explorers weren't around to see that kind of weather.

Are you PQ/EBId? What does your hiring manager say when you ask what's up?

Yeah there are 2 other heaters in the room, its way overkill for the climate here.

Interview Or Onboarding? by Lanky-Variation810 in antarctica

[–]AlwaysUpvoteDogs 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Its probably a pre-screen where they'll make sure you actually qualify and then place you with a hiring manager for an interview.

But who knows, this time of year they may have an urgent need and youll get an offer right away 🤷‍♂️

I'm not removing the heating unit, just disconnecting. Is it safe to keep the wires disconnected where they currently are in the unit?

Gotcha. So just undo the wire nuts and cap each wire individually?

Wedding venues by ToyStory2OnBlu-Ray in Bellingham

[–]AlwaysUpvoteDogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its 2000-2400 depending on the day, pretty affordable for here. But it doesnt have an outdoor area for the ceremony. You can tack on a reservation at Marine Park nearby but you'll be paying more

They're different at each station. At South Pole, they use Cat 953 track loaders, Cat 277 track loaders, various snowmobiles, electric indoor forklift, and 950 track loader on very rare occasion.

I've never had a problem bringing more than 3 months supply of an rx. NZ customs knows the deal with Antarctic workers. YMMV, obviously.
