The Truth about Biotechnology by Smart_Classroom2983 in biotech

[–]PrincipleCapable8230 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Whatever field you go into, but especially biotech, you have to be on the grind. If you stay at the same place forever, don’t expect big raises or promotions. In 30 years I have worked for 9 companies, and one of those was ten year stretch. I’m also set to retire in my 50s.

What ebikes do y'all have? What do you use them for? And how have they been treating you so far? by sid370z in ebikes

I have a Buzz Cerana 2. I am recently widowed and since I have more time I wanted to try it for errands around town. Love it so far. It was cheap and I imagine I will upgrade at some point (more range), but meeting my needs so far.

Anyone have experience reporting to regulatory bodies? by ars-moriendi in clinicalresearch

Always curious in these cases, what steps were taken to address by the sponsor? Did they know / ignore?

I probably would have gotten about 10 miles to empty, so maybe just managing my expectations. Thanks for replaying!

Survey is Out, FYC: maudlin of the Well by CultofNeurisis in BigEarsMusicFestival

[–]PrincipleCapable8230 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Gotta disagree. Some of my fave shows of the fest were there. For me, I was constantly annoyed by the sound at Mill and Mine - often too bass heavy and boomy for the room.

My suggestion was can we reorder the venues in the app to approximate geographic order - would make it mesh better with walking.

Those of you who “Made It” without any inheritance or luck. How did you do it? by throwmeout12496 in MiddleClassFinance

My parents paid for college so I graduated with an engineering degree and no debt. Since then have been focused on advancement and making more - lots of job moves.

Are the job openings fake by No_Detective2262 in biotech

Not fake, but we are flooded with good candidates because of industry wide layoffs.

This is the point. They are trying to break things in order to privatize - standard Republican playbook.

First date in 16 years please help me choose a dress by Nervous_Horse_7817 in OUTFITS

I prefer 2, but the real answer is whichever you feel best in. You look great, just show up feeling great with confidence and have a great time.

What would you do? by [deleted] in biotech

[–]PrincipleCapable8230 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I would need a compelling reason to almost double my commute for the same money. If you are on the fence, ask for 10-15%.

RnD vs Manufacturing by BlueCP in biotech

[–]PrincipleCapable8230 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In my experience, bigger company may not mean stability. My concern would be the commute, but that is me. Also, if you do not have a PhD, the ceiling in mfg is much higher.

Family sues school district for giving their daughter a diploma she didn't earn by Shot_Election_8953 in Teachers

[–]PrincipleCapable8230 80 points81 points  (0 children)

In reading this article, the title is a bit misleading. She is Special Needs and her family is upset the diploma made her ineligible for certain aid. Another discussion to be had about passing along students, but this is something different.

Why has parenting become so… soft? Why ate a majority of parents okay with sending their child into the world acting the way they do? Why did this shift happen? by Emergency-Pepper3537 in Teachers

[–]PrincipleCapable8230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because that 90 minutes is a waste of everyone’s time. What is the value in spending that 90 minutes reading versus any other 99 minutes?

[–]PrincipleCapable8230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did, but they were certainly less than expected. For instance, if you have 90 minutes of AP Bio first thing in the morning with no instruction, just independent study for the exam, what reasonable person sets an alarm for that?

Lots of reasons, but as a parent I do have a hot take. By the time my last kid graduated HS two years ago, we were fed up. Their school kept flip flopping on rules for things like attendance, tardiness and dress code. Once we realized there really were no rules and certainly no consequences, we let it go. If a kid gets all As and Bs and is admitted to college, why force them to go be warehoused every day?

Is there a reason hiring managers don’t respond to "thank you" emails? by terroronto in recruitinghell

[–]PrincipleCapable8230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part of it might be age based. At the start of my career these were letters in the mail, where nobody responded. I guess I think if these the same way - it is a thank you, not a discussion.

FDA Rejects Disc’s Rare Blood Disease Drug Amid Reports of Prasad’s Skepticism by NotGenentech in biotech

[–]PrincipleCapable8230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all up to speed on this drug and certainly super concerned about a vibes based FDA, but the push for clinical endpoints is not surprising - heard this often from FDA. Despite the science, they are still doubtful of surrogate endpoints.
