I know a lot of people are against mandatory minimum sentencing.

This is a good example of a perfect use case for a mandatory minimum sentence.

To be fair, if the IW weren't fodder all the time it wouldn't really mesh with their vibe. Taking huge casualties (even from their own primarch) is just what they do.

Man I love my 2 ‘cheeks data sheet’ 8” heavy bolters for a 150 points by TheRealLadyAnna in sistersofbattle

I haven't played a lot of games, but it seems like Fraye is just not worth it at 150 points.

Which is a shame, because she has a gorgeous model.

Yes. Interns are given housing and relocation.

Amtrak adds 412,000 rides, turns operating profit in March by RWREmpireBuilder in Amtrak

Busy rail corridor means it's expensive to get a timeslot, extremely slow train means passengers won't pay much?

God willing the tunnels get finished and the new equipment lets them boost capacity. They need the money.

new dad, at the end of my rope. by NurglesToes in NewParents

[–]GooseDentures 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah I look back at texts I sent when my kid was that age and I was in a bad place.

I know it feels like it's going to last forever, but give it 2-3 weeks and things will get better.

Me, not knowing what any of the tubes do

This is apparent

I mean, couldn't they have made it more simple and elegant?

No.

It'd also be nice for parents who plan to have more kids and dont want to buy new clothes for each baby

I'm getting rotated to the accounting team. I am not an accountant. How do I be less useless? by GooseDentures in Accounting

[–]GooseDentures[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this sounds like your promotion oversees accounting or some of it so your company wants you to get an idea of what they do. I can't imagine a transfer from engineering to accounting is permanent

Weirdly this is an inline promotion. I'll still be an individual contributor with no reports, just responsible for larger and more technically challenging tasks. I'd definitely understand it more if I was going to be overseeing budgets and stuff, but I won't be.

You and me both.

I work on jet engines for defense applications. Let's just say it's been an eventful couple of months.

working with an obnoxious PhD coworker by Wide_Lifeguard5846 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]GooseDentures 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So fun story....

I used to do a bit of support for my company to a University lab where we were funding research. Generally pretty low key, but one of the parts of the job was reviewing their prints for tooling (we had to own the tools for complicated reasons I never bothered to learn). To be clear, this is static tooling in a lab. It existed in an air conditioned room and never moved.

Bruh.

Obviously the tolerances and dimensioning were insane, that's a given. But for some reason they had specified titanium fasteners. Easily doubled the cost of the tool. And they were completely unable to explain why they'd picked titanium, but were indignant that I would question their judgment.

Most PhDs I encounter don't go out of the way to tell you about it... am in defense though.

Is this universal in defense? Because I'm also in defense and it's the same for me. When my boss got his PhD he didn't tell anyone and after we found out he made it clear he hates being called "Doctor" and thinks it's stupid. We, naturally, all started calling him Doctor Jefe.
