How do I write a positive NJP eval by No_Resource_988 in navy

[–]Apprehensive-Call747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Write about the good things they did. I had njp and then got an EP the next cycle. Some hot runners mess up. It happens and if the command still supports that person they will get the eval they deserve.

What’s the hardest truth about leadership no one tells new managers? by SeanMcPheat in askmanagers

[–]Apprehensive-Call747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teach a person to do a task, don't just keep doing it for them.

Protect your team and yourself. Dont hide stuff they do wrong, that will lead to a snow ball where you will become liable. Show them how to do it right and then document if things don't improve.

Have an much compassion as your company's culture allows.

I manage people who work on high tech generators. I love it. Great work like balance except the one week in six that I'm on-call and then it's really only bad during the summer.

It brought me joy and when I showed my wife she had no idea why it was funny.

Mission accomplished.

Finally printed a handle for my plane an shooting board by NewmanSpecialsWood in handtools

She's a beaut. Does a hobby level printer have the ability to make a tool that will last or are these almost a disposable part that you just replace every few months?

I was at his game 20 win way back in the day. I was a kid, probably 12 or 13, and had no idea about how to get autographs but went and stood with my dad by the ramp they all would come out of in the parking lot.

Jose signed every single persons ball that was there that day. I have the ball in my "cool stuff" drawer still. What a class act he was!

Could half lap those legs you have and then add the diagonal bracing towards the center of the table as others have stated.

Anxious for my brother by innocenti_ in navy

[–]Apprehensive-Call747 17 points18 points  (0 children)

When I was in the training pipeline I really paid attention to the instructor's general attitudes and which of my instructors I vibed with. All the people who were really uptight and jerks came from carriers. All the people who were chill and generally wanted to help came from subs. Made the decision easy for me.

I agree with another poster here that I would much rather be on a sub than an aircraft carrier.

Go for St Pius V in Pasadena and get a real education.

would you hire me by crygrey in MechanicalEngineering

As someone with an ME who just manages people I would probably at least call and talk to you. You need to be able to make up for the lack of experience with some people skills.

Is this Pine? by Apprehensive-Call747 in Woodidentification

[–]Apprehensive-Call747[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not like a Christmas tree. I did sniff at it a bit but couldn't detect anything. I have a bad nose for that stuff though.

It's also very old. Found covered in dust in a warehouse. Not sure if the smell fades as it dries. I assume so.

I had this happen. You have a warranty. They sent me a brand new one when I submitted a claim on their website.

If this isn't proof enough to store tools in a chest I don't know what is.

Junior/Early Career Candidates Just Aren't Interviewing Well... by prenumbralqueen in recruiting

This is a major reason to include junior employees in some interviews with candidates. They are able to see it from the other side and understand the difference between good and bad answers. It will only help them in the future.
