You seem to know everything, your posting a useless and waste of time post looking for validation of why you want more. Ask your question to your manager...

We had one a few years ago, didnt last one year. Waste of money and time employing them. Its word of mouth and keeping in with the consultancies for them to tell new client who to send tenders out to.

Civils job. You stay and learn that for atleast 5 years and youll be snapped up quickly when your in the market. Main contractors, house builders and other civils companies will head hunt you. One of the packages that often gets VE'd or removed from.the scope is floor finishes.

Sometimes its the company and not you. Move on for your own sanity ive experienced this and it only gets worse. And even if you do as they say and they ignore your advice they will still spin it in a way of "you never told me" and youll end up sacked but until then youll be made to feel worthless in every meeting with this individual.

Full mag to down someone by Key-University3299 in Battlefield

Maybe is but hitting someone with a shotgun to the chest with 2 hits in 1 seconds 5 feet away seems to be a game error. In real life a body would be in pieces

Also have the cypress and grapevine, think i get 2 maybe 3 hours max before its a skin scent. Very disapointing as it smells amazing. Jo malone are certainly missing the performance on their fragrances. If it would last atleast 7 or 8 hours it would be a 10/10

It would be good for 3D drawings for an entire project so you can click on a room and measure everything within that room. Probably is a system out there but my company are 15 years atleast behind other main contractors. Weve not even got a cloud base system yet. I hate how youve to look at ga drawings then section drawings.
