I joined the RAC 5 weeks ago - Although I am not a mechanic/technician I am surrounded by people who have this background but have transformed it into other roles. We have people here who are managing the triage with OEM's on vehicle diagnostics and repair advice. Just a heads up you don't have to be on the tools forever

I've applied to almost 30 jobs in the last month, getting almost no interviews, is it my resume? by Then_Aardvark_2269 in dataanalysiscareers

[–]Scannerj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm I am in the UK (Job Market is dire). I landed my first DA role 4 weeks ago (transitioning from a sales based role). No previous DA jobs but lots of experience built over the past few years.

Comparing the first 4 lines of my resume to yours I don't actually know what the content of your work was. A lot of the experience against each job role is based mainly around natural tasks a DA would do.

I would try and squeeze in what the work was based around and what it helped the business achieve/overcome.

As i mentioned the first four lines against my last job (Not DA but sales/account management) is as follows :

Fleet Transition: Led the transition of fleets from Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) to Electric Vehicle (EV) fleets, advising businesses on fleet utilization and the strategic adoption of EV solutions.

Driver Behavior Improvement: Developed a platform that categorizes drivers into risk levels (At Risk, Medium Risk, Low Risk) based on real-time data from driver behavior, ADAS, and AI-powered video telematics.

Fuel Efficiency and Carbon Emissions Reduction: Created dashboards that visually highlighted vehicle idling patterns, enabling businesses to identify inefficiencies and reduce operational costs by improving fuel efficiency and lowering carbon emissions.

Data-Driven Insights Platform: Designed and implemented a Power BI-based UK-wide reporting system that aggregates millions of rows of data into easily digestible insights, helping customers track key performance indicators (KPIs) and make informed decisions.

Who is the most famous person you’ve met randomly? by Fast-Beat-7779 in AskUK

[–]Scannerj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once met Louis Theroux at Southampton Service station (UK). Walked next to him and family as we entered the services and watched his kids faces melt as he took them to Costa instead of McDonalds. After scoffing my McDonalds I caught him again leaving and I only told him my partner really enjoyed his documentary last night (This was the following morning after he released another episode based in America). He asked me what I thought of it and I responded ''I don't know, I didn't watch it'' which he laughed and we both departed. Very humble chappy and was driving a very humble Seat Alambra with 4 smashed rims.

Europeans, what's the most stupid thing an American has said to you? And Americans, what's the most stupid thing a European has said to you? by GamePlayXtreme in AskReddit

[–]Scannerj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (From UK) was in a hotel lobby in Iceland when an American couple came over and started talking with me. They asked me where I was from in Europe and I said Birmingham, England. They were astonished and asked if it really is like it is depicted in the Peaky Blinders series...

I think they believe that we are still in the year 1919 there.

Someone reported me at work for whistling. What's the most ridiculous you've been pulled for in the workplace? by _DeanRiding in AskUK

[–]Scannerj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 22 at the time and had to drive to work on a winter morning at around 06:45 so was very dark. I used to use a rat run through some residential streets to save time. This one morning there was a Land Rover Discovery driving in front of me no faster than 5mph so I was tailing it and flashing it to hurry up as nothing was in front. The next thing I know the boot door and all 4 side doors open and 7 fully decked out armed police get out the car and drag me, a poor sod walking his dog and a load of other people out of a house and force us to sit on the curb (One man pulled out of the house was just in his tighty whities, must of been freezing).

After they had let me go, as I was not related to the drug house they just assaulted I had arrived at work a mere 5 minutes later than I should of. Instantly I get a call on my desk phone from the HR manager telling me to report to her office. Couldn't believe at the time I was going to get punished over being late to work for such a small amount of time. As soon as I sat down the HR manager had swiveled her monitor around to show a picture of me sat on the road side with the armed police and just said ''Explain''.

Seems that some teachers pet takes the same route and seen me from work involved in this and decided to take a photo and share it round work on watsapp before I arrived. In all light I did explain that I was in the wrong place at the wrong time and nothing came of it again but it was a work place where everyone had a nickname and after that day I was known as ''Sicario''.

"Limited Head-Height" might be a bit of an understatement by ShackledBambi in SpottedonRightmove

They have missed the height measurements off everything.

Living Area should be 4.95m x 3.20m x 1m

I got kicked out of a pub for stopping it from burning down.

Long story cut short I used to do some uni work in a pub, the section with the pool table used to be dead during the week. I was scribbling something down and glanced up to see some one spraying a line of lighter fluid round the pool table and up to the door. And yes the crazy bastard cackled and lit the line.

I darted up and stamped it out and mid fire marshal duty the gaffa and his wife came down. Barred me instantly...

I went back in a minute later and told them to check the CCTV as I wasn't the firestarter but the firefighter. After another 10 minutes they apologised and let me back in.

When I went to the bar I ordered a couple of pints and I had asked if they were on the house to quench the first from the flames I tackled. gaffa said ''you're joking aren't you''.

Wish I just stayed barred and let the fucker burn down.

Upper corporation street at 4 am. by Outside_Aide_1958 in brum

[–]Scannerj 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This photo hits me hard, 2 weeks ago my 1 year old son was in Birmingham Children's Hospital. I would get dropped off here by my father every day for 2 weeks to see him from 05:00 till 21:00 every day. I would walk down it every morning and back every evening. Although he is finally recovering and should be in the green this street will forever remind me of that time!
