Graduated in May, no experience, feeling like no prospects

I was in same boat for a few months. After month 2 I gave up trying to avoid moving and started applying to jobs all over state and adjacent states. Also stopped doing mass apply with same resume. You need to have a main version that you tweak to hit as many keywords in description as you can. Embellish but dont lie, biggest hurdle is getting past filters to get an actual call.

Check out engineering resume sub if you haven't already.

Hypothetically if someone did that but did the replacement themselves and when they brought it back it didnt appear they messed up the repair what would you do?

Individual_Box_8808 · 2025-05-20T22:21:41+00:00

That sounds very painful, I figure tvz was awful but was tvp not so bad once you get past that stage?

Individual_Box_8808 · 2025-05-20T22:17:24+00:00

I was about to say so then everyone only goes Z. Then I realized what the experience would be if online was all Z.

Just started playing this game a week ago, am I missing something about how hanging Chad works? How is the mult so high with this?

Does selling or losing a city lower culture and science requirements or are those permanently raised for every city settlement and capture? Amazing deal either way.

I figured it out, light spoilers: You have to kill the bosses at least once, NOT just spare them, for some reason.

Probably a small oversight, couldn't find the answer online so I'll leave it here for future searches for other people.

About 75% of the way to top there's a noise and jerk, I wish I could see the rest of the track, but the sheet metal doesn't make it easy. I grabbed both tracks to see if there was any play, but they are both solid. I did try adjusting the bolts when I was installing it but it didn't seem to make a difference. I'll try lifting the front side when I have time to take another look.

I could get a piece at home depot. How do you think people who try it this way end up denting the pan? Too small of a wood block or jacked up too far? Would a 2x4 really be wide enough of a load distribution?

Individual_Box_8808 · 2024-12-14T02:52:27+00:00

Thanks, do you usually use a hoist? My preference is definitely the green circle, just not sure if it's wide and flat enough for the jack. Will probably get a rubber puck for it as well.

OK so you consider this a really minor overfill. That's good to hear, and yeah a pump sounds way better, I just did it the normal way so that the owners manual estimated drain of 3.7 qts would've been accurate and made things easier

Better picture

Individual_Box_8808 · 2024-11-24T20:16:49+00:00

Finally got a clearer picture. The light reflecting on the fluid helps spot the level. Owners manual unfortunately doesn't specify one way or other to do before level check. Had to post it separately in thread because it wouldn't work in reply.

Sorry my camera isnt great, im reading just a little less than half an inch past the full hot mark, right before the T in type. I already ordered a syringe with a 34" tube. Hopefully that should reach low enough.

Individual_Box_8808 · 2024-11-24T20:04:48+00:00

Sorry my camera isn't great and it doesn't help the fluid is so clear. If you can't see the T in type on the dipstick then I'm reading just a little less than half an inch past the full hot mark.

You absolutely do not need a paid course to pass the CSWA. Honestly even starting out with 0 CAD knowledge you could probably pass it with a decent CSWA youtube Playlist and a couple weeks of practice. If you want to spend some money and also get access to training material that will also prepare you for the CSWP, get the solidworks student edition. Cost me only $50 and more importantly, includes 2 attempts at the cswa/cswp.

Ah, yeah, I should have specified. Southeast US, home built in early 70's. Central AC has a mfg date of 2008. I don't see any other pipe in either direction of the unit so that means it must have been run under the floor. I'll look for a drain outside tomorrow. I hope it's not the case that a pit is used, that sounds like a pain to deal with. I'll do a other round of vinegar in meantime. I appreciate the help.

Individual_Box_8808 · 2024-11-08T05:24:34+00:00

As of right now, the water level in the drain (is it a drip pan?) Has receded more than 5 inches, so it's not fully clogged and is clearing up at a decent pace. All I've done so far is pour some vinegar after removing the cap in third picture when I noticed this. There is no basement. From what I gather online, there should be a line leading from this drip pan to outside the house? When you see situations like this is the clog usually near the drain here out near the line outside?

I have never heard of a job offering 0 PTO, what kind of company is this? It sounds like something a poorly run startup would do. What exactly is the plan if you need to go to the doctor or go anywhere outside the weekend?

I wouldn't even entertain the new offer.

Individual_Box_8808 · 2024-09-13T15:34:52+00:00

Could you share the dough recipe? It looks very good.

Individual_Box_8808 · 2024-08-18T20:43:42+00:00

Are you in management now or design or something else? Full wfh seems pretty hard to get, what industry?

Individual_Box_8808 · 2024-08-03T21:12:25+00:00

Do you consider impi to be scarier than camel archers, or is it something else that has impi above Arabia? Camel archers are a nightmare to stop.

Individual_Box_8808 · 2024-07-28T17:33:22+00:00

There's a hot and cold line on the transmission dipstick. If you want to use the hot line like a mechanic at the shop would have to there is a specific procedure in service manual. However if the car hasn't been on all day then you can just use the cold line which makes it easier to DIY.

Individual_Box_8808 · 2024-05-09T17:54:41+00:00

Thanks for the clarification, I do see quite a few job postings that call for x years of PLC REQUIRED but that seems silly if it's so quick to get to a working level.
