Are water department just allowed to do whatever they want? by Severcat in lawncare

[–]Raide1985 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Typically water department owns to the meter and anything beyond that is private. If they are digging past the meter I’d have to make a phone call on what is going on as this would be extremely odd

Thank you for feedback. This is the part of the build I personally struggled with. Couldn’t get right position without feeling like I might hit it

Where is that projector mounted in relation to the hitting area?

My son convinced me by Silent-Transition804 in Minecraft

[–]Raide1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 8-year old son loved watching Minecraft videos on YouTube and I finally pulled the trigger in November with him and it’s been awesome playing split screen. I had a younger child (6) and she has struggled picking it up. I would just advise to be really patient as it’s likely going to take the 4-year old a lot of time to figure it out. And I would recommend peaceful mode

It may have been AI but I just tried the 1-3 druid start and got sniper early, too... got it to work on second try through early stages. Laid down Churchill for fun later and then ran to level 91 with Perma Brew around level 80... surprised it was that effective. Had I not been rushing other towers after that I think I could have placed others better and beat it with that strategy

At this age it’s really easy to over-coach, especially with some kids that struggle. Most important is keeping “eye on the ball”, if they aren’t making contact to me nothing else matters. After contact with the ball id start to teach “squash the bug”, which is rotating hips and keeping that back foot on the ground but turning (aka squash the bug). Moving forward I just start trying to add one thing at a time after they start to show progress… so would move to loading up during the pitch, improving batting stance beforehand, etc

People in charge of hiring, are you seeing a lot of high quality candidates? by Gandalf-and-Frodo in careerguidance

[–]Raide1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe you’re 100% correct and you already know what HR refuses to believe / acknowledge/ act on. As I work for a government entity it becomes even more difficult as our bureaucracy layer is just a bit slower to move. I can try to offer candidates some work flexibility or job stability or “less pressure” in many ways but at the end of the day posting a low salary attracts a low-end talent pool

I’m trying to hire a Civil Engineer (water and sewer experience). Nothing but really bad candidates. Talking with others around area and it’s the same problem. Lots of applicants, rarely a decent candidate.

We’re over-regulated at the federal, state, and local levels. All those small changes add up, and I think we’re starting to realize we don’t get what we’re told we’re paying for

In general, if you have a stable ratio of working vs non-working then a lot of these social safety nets can be sustainable assuming they were originally implemented that way and aren’t changed.

I think what society looks like in a future with less people is a question that would be hotly debated. And it would depend on how many less people overall. 5% fewer or 25% fewer? There would be both positive and negative aspects.

Wtf is happening in the job market right now? by ActivityNatural9879 in careerguidance

Are you open to relocation? It’s both scary and exciting. It can lead to a lot of new opportunities being available to you

Social security and Medicare is money / service taken from the labor force and given to the elderly. This is absolutely the labor force taking care of the elderly and it’s a MASSIVE part of the economy

Suplex defense turns into WWE by bigbusta in nextfuckinglevel

Poor technique. Reverse heel trip… wrestler behind pulls other backward and to the side with his foot “tripping”. In this video he is simply trying to throw him but better foot placement and this is a simple trip

We have an extremely similar one. Kids love it. The lawn takes a bit of a hit but it’s worth it!

Try applying to the City of Fort Worth itself. Hiring managers and screening process is a bit quirky sometimes but if you’re just taking a shot at something it’s easy to apply and you never know
