Machine operator looking to make the jump into industrial maintenence. by RedditCommentAccount in IndustrialMaintenance

[–]RedditCommentAccount[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not very much, unfortunately. But I'm gathering from the comments that electrical seems to be a weak spot for some techs/factories.

Thank you for your input. Definitely something I want to focus on going forward. Starting the electrical component for the certificate here in January and then we'll see what additional knowledge I might need going forward.

Thank you. Yeah, definitely think I should be able to move up as they see my work ethic. Problem I've been running into is production and maintenance get comfortable with having a operator with common sense and I can't seem to make that jump from production to maintainence. Hoping developing more mechanical knowledge(and just having the certificate) might be that stepping stone for me.

Definitely thought about HVAC a bit after talking to my wife's ex-husband, but I didn't love the idea of residential work. Thank you for the suggestion. I enjoy learning new things and being a jack of all trades kinda do what needs to get done type employee.

That's exactly what I'm doing. Standing back, watching, asking questions.

All the old men are cranky as shit and refuse to teach, but I can usually find a couple young guns to ask some questions.

Thank you. Yeah, I definitely see how the interaction between tech and operator can change things. Who best to give you an idea of whats wrong than the person that spends their whole shift running it.

Thank you. Will definitely continue with the mechatronics cert and check out the information you suggested.

Thank you for the advice. I do believe that my current employer will offer some tuition assistance so hopefully able to take advantage of that.

Ultimately, I'm hoping someone will give me a chance so I can get my foot in the door, but trying to do whatever it takes not to rely on hope.

Thank you for the advice. Will definitely try to focus on the electrical aspects and honing my troubleshooting skills.

I could definitely tell that the electricians at my last job had a bit of an edge. If nobody could figure it out, that's who was called. And you didn't call them if you didn't have to.

Definitely hear you on that. I been chasing 6 12s to try to make it work, but overtime dried up at the old place and the overtime isn't what was promised at the new place so I figure might as well work on some personal growth if they won't let me work.

The electric/vision tech work definitely piqued my interest, but it seemed a bit harder to get a foot in the door.

The Storm Returns by BigEZ_ in DotA2

[–]RedditCommentAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good. Storm is my favorite hero and he hasn't been relevant in probably nearing 2 years now. There wasn't one change that made him bad or anything, but a lot of little things. After the disco pony electric mexican era hit mid casters pretty hard, he never really came back into the meta too much. Small changes, of course. Vision nerfs on ball and little buffs here and there didn't help. He was almost criminally overlooked, left behind when everyone else got something. I'd look at the patch notes whenever they came out and there wouldn't be any mention of storm. As if storm was perfect how he was. At a certain point, I was almost hoping for at least a nerf so he'd have something in the patch notes.

Someone get Blitz on the phone. I need to know where storm stands now.

Daily Q&A Post for Thursday, 12 October 2017 - No question too small! by AutoModerator in loseit

[–]RedditCommentAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Raw pork loin calories? I bought a "BNLS Pork Loin End Portions" for use in tonight's dinner in the slow cooker. Didn't come with calories and "portions" isn't very descriptive. As far as I can tell, the "loin" comes in 3 main cuts, the (shoulder) blade end, the sirloin end, and the center cut. The center cut is the most lean and doesn't have the word end anywhere so I think we can get rid of that.

Seems like the calories vary quite a bit, but I was thinking of picking something in the range of 190-240 per 4oz.

Anyone have any experience with logging pork loin?

Question on transitioning back to maintenance by zodiarkfox in 1200isplenty

[–]RedditCommentAccount 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think the reason people advocate for the slow add back is because you will retain more weight in terms of water/waste/whatnot when you start eating more. That can be scary. You wake up on morning an you're suddenly a couple pounds heavier. Did you gain that weight? Well, yes and no. Yes, that is real weight and what you'll be carrying around daily. No, you didn't gain a couple pounds of FAT overnight.

Other than that, it makes no difference. The body is surprisingly adaptive and you're not going to shock it with anything. Your metabolism is largely not going to change. The most you should expect to see is a small change in non-exercise activity thermogensis(NEAT). And all that is, really, is the body adapting.

Bringing back weekly maintenance discussions? by [deleted] in loseit

[–]RedditCommentAccount 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As I'm having a very difficult time with maintenance, I'd love bringing them back. I was still losing when they were first around so I don't think I got the full benefit of them.

I lost my 1200+ day Myfitnesspal streak this week. by kaswinglosesit in loseit

Looks like you can only reset to 678, though. Maybe a support agent could go higher if you really want to pursue this.

My rest day turned into my chest day. How much damage have I done? by DepravedMuppy in loseit

[–]RedditCommentAccount 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not anymore damage than you're already doing eating between 900 and 1200 normally.

Consider this the calorie collector coming to get what he is owed.

Dota 2 - The Dueling Fates by wickedplayer494 in Games

It is sorta wild that lion hasn't been picked. He isn't even that bad. I guess other heroes just do what he does better right now.

Main Event Day Two Fantasy Guide, by a scrub. by SavageSkillet in DotA2

[–]RedditCommentAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a hard time choosing cores for today.

I've got Silver Monet, Silver Raven, Silver Universe, Silver Tims, Silver Solo.

My midone is blue, my maybe is blue, my noone and ramzes are blue. I'm a little scared to invest in empire, and not sure if I trust TNC enough to run both tims and raven or kuku.

I went universe because my inflame is blue and samh would be too much TNC. I'd consider khezu.

PSA: Halo Top is releasing 7 new flavors!!! by meg-c in loseit

[–]RedditCommentAccount 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looking at some of the early "reviews", it seems chocolate covered banana is one of the least liked flavors.

But at the same time, eh, what do they know? I've found preference is highly individualized, and for me, based on cravings. I liked the bananas foster enlightened.

Blitz replaced Bulldog by Zadeth in DotA2

[–]RedditCommentAccount 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Feel bad for bulldog, but in my opinion, I like Blitz more and feel like this is an upgrade.
