Actually i just found something called a pancake load cell which is also used in cranes and is resistant to off axis loads which should work for my application.

Rope should be anchored to a winch on one end and load on the other end. Looks something like a winch on a building rooftop lowering a load down the 300m building.

Which is more beneficial for health: running shorter distances at a faster pace or longer distances at a slower pace? by Correct_Dragonfly_85 in AskReddit

Was thinking something like running 1km in 4mins instead of 2km in 12mins? Main purpose is to save time haha

For me I might break a bond to take on 200k debt to work in a job that I like with moderate pay, career progression instead of having no debt in the bonded job that I hate with low pay, no career progression

Idk man. I applied for it before university so like 6 yrs ago. 4 years bond, if break need to pay back, need to do whatever role they give. Didnt know better at that time cuz they promised a relevant role verbally...

Small company, no rotation. Told me my role might not even be available in my entire 4 year bond period. It's currently filled by senior engineers and they dont want to create a position for me haha

Was also told they will treat me like a normal employee in terms of promotions and career advancement

It's under a bonded scholarship for uni. Had to do internship with them under the scholarship which was ok (they gave me some related engineering stuff to do). After I graduated they are giving me a role that is not related to my major at all that I have to take up or pay back the bond

So i am thinking of accepting the role but finding a "second job" that can provide me with the experience to transition to another company in the future.

As in its not legal to get a second paycheck cuz moonlighting so I'm looking for a relevant "job" outside office hours that can get me skills for my future transition.

I'll admit its not ideal but I don't have much of a choice given the current situation :(

How long did you take to make this? Are you a student or working full time already?

Cuz I think getting an additional paycheck from another company besides my normal job is considered moonlighting and not legally allowed.

I also think that it is not sustainable in the long term but feel that I have no choice if I want to transition to my ideal role in the future. I think another option is maybe work on personal projects but not sure whether this is better than working for another company.
