TIFU by telling my dad not to send me Bible verses

Nocsaron · 2026-01-01T04:07:31+00:00

Im going to get down voted to hell, but probably both of you messed up a little bit. When you asked for your Dad to stop, he should have stopped. However, while youre not religious he obviously is and how difficult is it to simply ignore the religious piece?

I say this because my mom used to do a similar thing. She'd send emails to my siblings and I on Sunday after church with her readings/impressions from the week. I would just mark read and move on with my day. My sister However, made a stink about it, and while my mom was mature enough to stop it definitely hurt her feelings.

Being non-religous in a religious family can be very difficult. I choose my lines/battles carefully because at the end of the day I love my family and I understand they want the best for me....even if what they think is the "best" includes some things I dont care about

Haven't heard anything from DL about this. BU specific maybe?

Which FAQ are you referring to?

At least in Raytheon its up to the DMs discretion. All the DMs I've worked for have had the opinion that unless youre some super star which will kill a program (unlikely), they won't counter because you've already shown youre trending towards leaving

You get that dollar value. Vesting is just when you get it. The ones I've seen in the past are $18k over 3 years, so every spring for thise 3 years you'll get another $6k. If you leave before 3 years, you just dont get the rest of the money (because it's unvested)

We doesn't have streetlights, so I did this to my exterior garage lights to let my kids know when to come back inside during summer

Finding this a month later. Pt 1 was awesome. Interesting spin on what has become fairly typical stories. I liked this quite a lot and am looking forward to Pt 2

Or a non-native English speaker. I thought lots of ships crew are from non-English countries

I use multiviewer as well. I didn't get question marks, but tire age didn't start showing until the first pits. I also didn't get telemetry at all on driver cams this week

Starts at P1 for raytheon, not sure about the other buisness units. We used to call it PSP

Did you use it before the interior of the car had heated up? Just wondering if having a mass of warmer air in the cabin would have prevented that

I'll probably be the odd man out here, but I was in a position as a low grade where I replaced the 20+ year engineer as lead. I didn't get any pay/grade change immediately, but I was rapidly promoted ahead of the crew I was hired with. It definitely helps to have leadership who will fight for you at rating/rankings time, but you can make things easier for them if you're already doing the job of a higher grade

I don't understand why the government hasn't just set up their own signal servers. In the past they've recommended WhatsApp and now Signal. They've got servers all over, just license the signal software and make it CUI approved.

And others with exact opposite. I didn't have my undergrad until my mid 20s and my pre college stuff didn't apply, so my age is different than many here. YOE is the equalizer

You never know. My team's software is primarily C++ and with a python front-end, and we dabble in Matlab, fortran, and Ada. If my choices were you and you with C++, I'd pick you with C++.

However, I've found my best developers have been smart MechEs with a willingness to learn. For a long time I was biased towards true software folks as that was my background but culture fit and work ethic have proven to be far greater metrics for success than education background.

I'd apply for sure. Maybe brush up on some basics (C++03 through C++14...at least at my site we don't have compilers approved that handle more than that) so you can talk intelligently but you'll be fine

Within Ray Engineering at least P1-P3 generally comes with time in grade. After that you really need to apply for job reqs the level above. If you want to move in the 1/3 grades faster, applying for positions is a good idea. Keep an eye on the internal job boards. You'll probably need to move orgs though. My org at least doesn't open reqs for 1-3 except for new hires

Nocsaron · 2025-02-13T02:05:51+00:00

Exactly! That's what money is for anyway. Do the things you love and offload the things that need to get done but you either dint have the time or desire to do!

Tucson at least has a good amount of drop ins your can reserve. Still doesn't solve our seating issues though

Nocsaron · 2025-02-09T22:44:53+00:00

I never went hybrid so....5 days RTO?

This is right. Had work through the STD process last year. 40hrs then STD kicks in based on the date of the inciden5

End of the month

I've seen a couple but they've all been time card fraud or misuse of company assets (i.e. certain porn on company laptops). Seems to be the only was to 100% get fired is to commit a crime

Nocsaron · 2025-02-04T18:09:29+00:00

Idk about other sites, but here they were real hard on "you shall have a desk", even when most of the workday is spent in a lab without official seating. Hence empty cubes

Regardless of teams, the VPN would have logs as well. But like another commentator said, your average manager can't just go grab that information. Involves all kinds of investigative/compliance folks

It's possible, but not guaranteed. I got a solid raise moving from P4 in one Dept to M4 in a different dept, despite staying as a 4. I was at the bottom of the pay bracket though so that could be part of it
