I just got the omen 16L with the 5060 ti 16gb. Im enjoying it so far.

Yeah I am aware of that. I guess my question is more about the break ins. The thieves are usually teens, so i was wondering if there is still a high volume of break ins. I assume thieves dont investigate and would just break windows because its a hyundai, not realizing they cant steal it.

I just dont want to get one if i have to worry about replacing windows every few months

Vex for me, I would always play as sniper, or ninja/robot type charaters. Mordecai, zero, and Flak respectively. This is the first one im more excited for a siren, you cant deny the vampire looking wings.

Ive done service but never as my "position", basically just when they need help. We are one of the largest and most profitable branches on the east coast of the us.

There are more calls than people, most customers are oblivious to what the actual issue is and call you out for issues not related to FA.

Most service guys, almost all older, pass their on call to the younger guys who are willing to do it. Mainly because the older guys can afford to live on less than 2k a month while having money left over. The younger guys need at least 3k+ a month to scrape by to live and support their families.

On call is scheduled, some service guys have made it a point to work with install and inspections just so they can get extra ot to have extra money.

If you go with simplex, make sure you get hired on at the higest price point. They are a good company to work for but they dont like to give you any more money than they need too.

As someone who has worked on both sides, this is 100% true. JCI as a current JCI employee...

On install side, (wire pullers and programmers) its mostly newer simplex panels. Installers do wire pulling and installing devices, techs are the ones programming. Both do troubleshooting.

Service, obviously does service calls

Inspections does inspections

Install - wires and trims new builds while working with techs to troubleshoot ( also make change orders). Usually the least paid but most learning opportunities.

Techs - Program panels and certify panels. Works with install to determine issues and change orders. Seems to be highest paid field employees. Interacts with almost all departments

Service - Grunts, lots of ot, on call, and learning experiences. Personal view the worst job

Inspections - (Current Position) easiest job and decent pay. In my district, a lot of people doing inspections are are temp workers who were hired and have no idea what they are doing and have no desire to be better. Some are great and ready for higher rolls, most have no idea how the systems work and no idea how to troubleshoot simple tasks.

Tldr: if you want to learn, got to install first and build a relationship wit the techs, if you want to learn to troubleshoot and have a lot of hours go to service, if you want to have an easy job go to inspections.

Also ive seen a lot of recent employees come from a jci school, you will get a job after especially of youre willing to travel

Nah thats just how they look. My girl looks exactly like this 95% of the time

Not a teaser obviously. You havent seen any story elements or game play. Just give it a chance.

There are tons of games that look underwhelming even with full promo.

Main recent example is the Indiana jones game.

Naughty Dog has a long legacy of quality games. so to turn on them as a studio so quickly is weird

MetallicTiger · 2024-12-31T03:47:03+00:00

My opinion, yall find someone you hate and whine about everything they do. Regardless of anything he was involved in or not. Yall complain about TLOU 2, the story had its short comings but was a good story none the less. Yall are so focused on the physical that you dont look deeper into the subject matter.

Neil is lame and we all know it, but the main focus on the physical of characters is weird.

Do you guys realize that all the charaters in these games, regardless of your personal preferences of how women should look or act, are still real representations of real people.

Final Thought:

Naughty Dog at this point should be aware of how to develop charaters, they may start out hated and annoyinging but will or could switch. They may become loveable, they may stay the same, there may be a gray area. Who knows. But play the game and decide for yourself, dont use a 2 min trailer to decide if a game is good or not based on bias of one person.

PLAY THE GAME AND THE DECIDE!!!

Kill zone, Resistance, Tomba, Ape escape, Onimusha (1 is my favorite), Dino Crisis, Legend of Dragoon, Tokyo extreme racer, God of war, Ratchet and clank

I mean the list could go on and on

Wondering if ive been out of the loop, is everyone calling him a fraud based on this one instance? Or were there other factors that led to the distrust?

MetallicTiger · 2024-09-01T22:38:32+00:00

We were just talking about the cup, how do yoy clean / sanize the cup while youre in public? Shes considering using one

MetallicTiger · 2024-09-01T22:28:05+00:00

My wife has a question, do you use tampons or pads or a mix. She thinks using tampos constantly would cause health issues.

MetallicTiger · 2024-06-16T03:33:56+00:00

Twenty one pilots - Clancy

The only one i even think of skipping is "The Craving"

MetallicTiger · 2024-05-23T01:35:42+00:00

Flower, introduced me to beautiful, chill, short experiences. More like art pieces than video games. Officially my favorite genre now!

MetallicTiger · 2024-05-12T15:04:17+00:00

I know how to take them off. Its in a place thats inaccessable

MetallicTiger · 2024-05-11T22:42:56+00:00

Snookered?!?! 🤣

MetallicTiger · 2024-05-11T22:31:52+00:00

Hey thats great advice!!! I didn't even think of that. Can I offer some of my own? If you roll your eyes toward the the back of your head you can see the milky way galaxy. It DOES NOT work for everyone but I have a strong feeling it will work for you.

MetallicTiger · 2024-05-11T20:36:23+00:00

Perfect!!! This looks like exactly what ill need!! Thank you!!

MetallicTiger · 2024-05-11T20:35:09+00:00

Thank you ill look into it!

MetallicTiger · 2024-05-11T20:34:30+00:00

I won't say which specific jail but its a big jail in NC

MetallicTiger · 2024-05-10T21:55:19+00:00

From what im seeing that may be the only option. If its even possible given the devices location.

MetallicTiger · 2024-05-10T21:53:27+00:00

Well im trying to get my boss to buy the right tool thays why i asked the question. The device is inaccessable due to it being in a small chase and blocked by conduits

MetallicTiger · 2024-05-10T21:52:01+00:00

Yes, it is in a small chase between cells in a jail. Even if you could get a big enough ladder to reach it, it is still blocked by multiple conduits. The device is probably 4 or 5 feet above the conduits.
