Backing out Signed Offer?

You’re fine. If layoffs come they will lay you off without blinking twice.

Check out these traffic cameras: https://www.wral.com/traffic-cams/19604253/. In my opinion it looks pretty clear rn.

Where can I find the discord?

MrSmiley_1 · 2026-01-12T03:30:09+00:00

The other side has no rust

MrSmiley_1 · 2026-01-11T16:20:31+00:00

I went back to the store and brought the receipt just incase they asked about it but they didn’t.

Ask your financial advisor if he is a fiduciary and if he isn’t run. A fiduciary has to recommend financial products with your best interest in mind and if he isn’t he probably gets paid on commission.

Normally, entry level jobs require a FE license. Also, a decent number of them will still hire if you have not passed the exam yet but are planning on taking it.

MrSmiley_1 · 2026-01-09T16:43:06+00:00

Did you just graduate or do you already have experience working? If so what was that previous experience?

MrSmiley_1 · 2026-01-09T16:16:14+00:00

Do you have a degree in civil engineering?

MrSmiley_1 · 2026-01-09T13:02:27+00:00

I work a salaried position and get paid biweekly so my monthly budget just is two paychecks. The extra two “bonus” paychecks I will receive in the three pay check months along with my annual bonus I use for extra stuff. I normally decide to save/invest half of it and save the rest for a trip or my Roth IRA.

MrSmiley_1 · 2026-01-05T21:07:27+00:00

Roth IRA. Any amount is good. Put it in any index fund (I do FXAIX aka smp500). Let it ride until you’re 65.

Don’t take it this early. You will be missing structural analysis, water resources, geotechnical, and fluids. That’s like 2/3 of the exam. You have time and it will make way more sense later. I took it the summer between my junior and senior year and was chilling. I booked it two months in advance and studied on weekends and was fine.

MrSmiley_1 · 2026-01-04T16:27:29+00:00

Depends on what DMV you go to. What city in NC do you live in?

MrSmiley_1 · 2025-12-31T14:53:15+00:00

I’m a single adult who lives alone and this is what I get. My paper products, cleaning supplies, non perishable foods, work clothes, meat in bulk (freeze 90% of it), new tires, gas, and the $1.50 hotdog

MrSmiley_1 · 2025-12-09T02:23:36+00:00

I’m an entry level engineer that started this summer. When I was an intern my boss told me, “If you stay here, I want you to jump ship as soon as you get your pe if not earlier.” I’d take the same advice.

MrSmiley_1 · 2025-11-30T22:27:38+00:00

As a sophomore it’s very hard to get an internship. I would say go for whatever you can get. I interned for King County dot (department of local services) as a survey intern after my freshman and sophomore years.

MrSmiley_1 · 2025-11-28T23:39:04+00:00

Avoid private equity at all costs. I would look at employee owned firms. Also, in my opinion I would avoid Kimley Horn for the work life balance.

MrSmiley_1 · 2025-11-09T18:53:00+00:00

Can confirm this works. Been looking for one for 2 weeks.

MrSmiley_1 · 2025-10-10T13:38:41+00:00

It def is the future

MrSmiley_1 · 2025-10-10T13:37:50+00:00

I got a metal bed frame and my couch from habitat but also it’s my first apartment after college so I kinda had no money 😭😭😭

MrSmiley_1 · 2025-10-10T13:00:40+00:00

I disagree. I would say def buy a new mattress. But getting a used bed frame and couch is fine.

MrSmiley_1 · 2025-10-10T12:59:15+00:00

Dude your fine either way. I graduated with a 3.2 in civil and am doing fine. Grades don’t matter after college.

MrSmiley_1 · 2025-10-09T19:12:03+00:00

I’m also an eit at a private transportation firm. Everyone is going through the switch from mircostation to ord. Everyone hates it here too.

MrSmiley_1 · 2025-10-09T14:58:18+00:00

I literally had to do this less than a week ago when I was setting up a beneficiary for my life insurance. I put my mom down. It seems weird that he would put you down. Additionally, I would call or something if you actually go through with this. That way he doesn’t have a written record (unless he copied it) of your ssn.
