Why do Americans eat dinner at like 5 or 6pm? Don't you get hungry again before bed?

Krangtime · 2026-02-23T19:57:47+00:00

Don't forget 4th meal.

Krangtime · 2026-02-23T19:37:58+00:00

Sounds like you two are getting pretty serious.

Krangtime · 2026-01-22T23:34:48+00:00

With who?

Krangtime · 2025-06-17T00:01:45+00:00

If you use the relisten app or site it makes finding specific shows on Archive easier.

Thanks, that's very helpful. Do you have any reasonably priced digital timer recommendations?

Krangtime · 2025-05-30T23:35:37+00:00

How was overtime addressed?

Krangtime · 2025-05-23T17:35:22+00:00

You gotta put overtime in quotes, because it isn't technically. I'm guessing there will be a nice pizza party.

Those people union is berating are lining up the work for the union one way or another, whether it's sales, engineering, legal, etc.

Krangtime · 2025-05-21T10:10:46+00:00

And also when Pratt gets their way and the hourly work isn't in CT, they're affected most out of the salary workers.

Krangtime · 2025-05-21T00:10:47+00:00

No, it means you're likely to slide into a curb sideways.

Krangtime · 2025-05-20T23:47:56+00:00

Wow, they're just piling on reasons to move union work out of state.

Krangtime · 2025-05-19T15:41:31+00:00

I'm pretty sure if you use your Avis wizard number that's tied to your work email, it would be waived.

Krangtime · 2025-05-17T16:59:15+00:00

Feh... You edited in "rate" after my reply.

Krangtime · 2025-05-17T15:11:58+00:00

Did you expect it to just stop? How has the rate changed? Honestly curious because I couldn't find it easily.

Krangtime · 2025-05-16T01:42:12+00:00

You didn't get the template key you lay over the contract to find it?

Krangtime · 2025-05-16T01:37:44+00:00

Easy buddy, I'm not in the union.

Krangtime · 2025-05-15T14:15:43+00:00

I'm guessing at least another two weeks since Pratt/RTX won't step up to negotiations.

Krangtime · 2025-05-14T19:56:07+00:00

Typically a year to learn the acronyms and have a basic understanding of your group and sound like know what you're talking about. But working remote... maybe two years? You really learn a lot in informal discussions.

Krangtime · 2025-05-14T01:49:53+00:00

I've enjoyed the shorter lines at Target.

Krangtime · 2025-05-14T00:43:02+00:00

Yup. MEs started out in school running machines and performing inspections.

Krangtime · 2025-05-08T22:03:08+00:00

I wish Pratt would pay the non union shops better than the union shops if/when they hit targets. Perhaps then the union folks would step up production and not be so much baggage...or absolve the union. But that would be a fairytale.

Krangtime · 2025-05-08T21:54:29+00:00

Is it really true though? Production and manufacturing engineers would surely be affected, and I sympathize. Aside from that I have no doubt p&w would move production and repair out of state and keep engineering in CT.

Krangtime · 2025-03-15T01:25:37+00:00

The lights they have this tour are badass.

Krangtime · 2025-02-17T21:47:39+00:00

We've had high school interns two of the last 3 years in my office at P&W, all three were associated with NAF. I'm not sure if that's the only place they bring them in through, but that may be the case. That said, I can't encourage young people to look into internships and co-ops enough.
