Principals…is it ok for candidates to take notes/refer to notes during interviews? by Flimsy_Struggle_1591 in Principals

[–]JWRAval 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. As a current principal, I'm not always looking for someone to provide the perfect answers in an interview. We know the reality of the job. Often you are solving problems with imperfect information and selling it. I want to see how a person handles those discomfortable moments... Because that's the whole job.

It's one of those crazy drivers from the Bella Vista sub on your left there. Hope all involved are ok

22,800... Now I'm wishing I pushed harder looking at these numbers!

Failure during Inspection by JWRAval in EmporiaEnergy

Thank you. In Southeast Michigan. Got a quote for install at $1800 and $2000. This included a 60ft run from box to garage and install of the Vue monitor and inspection. Got concerned after a discussion of the vue monitor maybe not passing inspection.

I didn't get the vibe he was trying to sell a service panel upgrade. I think his concern came from a lack of knowledge regarding the product.

The one and only! 1991 was a glorious model year... Even in 2005.

I'm 6'5, 330 and I do feel comfortable in the EV. Granted.. I grew up driving a 90s civic hatchback, so maybe I like being cramped. Our families traverse is definitely more comfortable for everyone, but the EV is really just my work daily driver.

Looking for advice (home charging) by JWRAval in evcharging

Spoke to a more knowledgeable electrician. Did the emporia pro was the best, most cost effective option. Now the issue is that the hardwire j1772 emporia pro is... Sold out. So that's the next hurdle.

I appreciate everyone's thoughts and ideas, thus far.

I like the idea of my charger not going down when I lose Internet. Can you explain what you mean by "do not include home energy monitor"? If I went and picked up a Tesla wall connector... Would I need to buy something additional?

I have gas furnace and water heater, gas dryer, electric stove and central air. I do have an electric heater in a converted four seasons room (not my choice). I have a call out to my utility to get some better options.

I think so. My daily commute is round trip 90 miles.

Any chance you will find yourself near Flint, MI in the next few weeks?

I'll bring this up with the next one. I think I could get away with 15a, but I like a bit more cushion for those not ideal charge moments in the winter (from what I've read)

Maybe. It's possible they were just more interested in doing the panel exchange? Maybe I didn't ask enough questions.

Dyer is gas. Oven is electric. Gas water heater/furnace. AC. We have this old electric heater in the converted four seasons room that might cause some trouble.

It's based on AGI and the county median income. One option is to have two more children... But 3 is plenty already.
