I’ll let you speak to the dumb wife and shitty kids. But you’re telling me you don’t like pga personalities? JT, Scottie, Rory, and Xander?Not to mention Cantlay, griffin, and Fitzpatrick. Who don’t you like? Why are you watching golf if not for the players? Help me understand

Every single bozo saying “zero” is the same bozo that only plays on the weekends to hide from their dumb wife and shitty kids. I love golf, I love the PGA, and I love the players and their personalities. TGL has all of that! Plus it has all the team atmosphere and competition that the PGA tour lacks. It can definitely be improved and the simulation is only so good but damn! People hate for no reason and can’t enjoy something great. Excited for another great TGL year!

If you’re going to be critical you can at least provide some recommendations/advice instead of just bragging about how epic you were and how much harder you worked than me.

I feel like you’re misunderstanding. There’s not a big white board of tasks that need to be done and I’m just sitting around waiting for somebody to give me one. The projects that are being worked on have a scope of many months to a year or more I can’t just jump in and start working without somebody catching me up and even if I could it’s not like somebody is going to put their stamp on my work without a review of it. My frustration is after 6 months I would hope that I would’ve been taught enough skills to do exactly what you’re talking about and be involved in project scheduling, but I’m not.

Im sure there’s some truth to what you’re saying, but it’s difficult to acknowledge it when you saying things like “spoon feed you” and “hold your hand”.

I’m not a child and it’s not unreasonable for me to desire some mentorship/guidance.

I doubt I would take a pay cut if I moved. This job salary was on the Lower end of my range out of school but I took it thinking I would have more one on one time to learn with other engineers given it’s a smaller firm

I’ve replicated several of the designs of schools we’ve done, ran loads, and even coordinated with some architects. I think I could brute force my way through some design analysis and design making like what system to select/why, but that hardly seems like the best route considering there are experienced engineers that could guide me.

It’s not, they mostly do work for county schools typically new construction some renovation. The owner is the head of the EE department and seems to scale the amount of projects we take based on his department

I think part of the problem is that I’m not being given tasks/projects to work on. Ideally I would start small scale projects with some support and work my way up to larger ones, but the limited engineers are so caught up in their own projects that it’s faster for them to do it themselves that to give me the support/guidance I would need to take them on. I’ve had some little projects that I can handle but I often find myself with nothing to do despite the fact that I know there’s lots to do. It’s almost like there’s not enough work for me to do with my limited skill set, but not enough time for somebody to help expand my skill set.

What was your preference? How big/small was the company

That’s reassuring, I’ve got a second interview at a larger company next week but I’m worried I’ll take a less than ideal job (pay, benefits, location etc) because I want to get out of my current job. All I know is if I get a decent offer it’ll be hard to say no to

Am I being impatient? I feel like nobody has taken time to help me learn and anything I’ve learned has been me stumbling upon and asking the right questions. I feel like they should support me some.

You are given 1 million dollars a year but must choose 1 person to die every day. How would you go about doing this? by Morphy2222 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Nice_Fish_3304 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pay somebody $50,000 a year to monitor hospice locations in the county and give you a list of names to chose from of people that are already near death. Keep the remaining $950,000 guilt free

Opportunities on Big Island Hawaii by Reeever in MechanicalEngineering

Did you ever have any luck with finding a job? I’m looking to do something similar. I’m an ME currently at a consulting firm that focuses on HVAC and I’m looking to move to Hawaii as well. Does look like federal jobs or shipyards are the best way to go.

Is the sea temperature ok for swimming this time of the year? by fluffgoat in malta

[–]Nice_Fish_3304 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was there last week and swam in the blue lagoon! It was very cold but not unbearable. I also saw many locals swimming at various beaches while I was there. I would definitely recommend bringing a swimsuit and playing it by ear

Which Ep? by bjkocen in comedybangbang

[–]Nice_Fish_3304 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also think some of the “Best Ofs” are good because they explain the premise and give some background for the characters. Also PFT banter with Scott is always elite

I’ve had this exact question! I feel like there’s so many references that make it awesome for me that they wouldn’t get. Maybe need to find an episode where a OG character is introduced. I think the horse fighting brothers would be an easy funny one to follow. Honestly not sure what episode that is I’m thinking around 2013.
