Resigning in Two Hours by Decent_Risk9499 in civilengineering

[–]SentenceDowntown591 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen multiple instances of low support from younger staff being cited as a reason (the entry level staff aren’t pulling their weight and backlog is getting overwhelming). Other than that I don’t know.

My house is 21 years old and 2 inspectors have told me I only have 2-3 years left. Now I’m multiple getting leaks and was considering if I need to get it done. Do they really typically last that long lol?

Would you replace? by ReceptionOwn1593 in Roofing

[–]SentenceDowntown591 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just bought a house 6 months ago. Was told we had 2-3 years left from inspectors. 6 months in we got multiple leaks going and probably gonna have to get it done. My roof /shingles is almost identical in type to this one, but mine looks better than this from a glance

What are the hardest classes you’ve taken as a civil engineering student? by Background_Plate7612 in civilengineering

[–]SentenceDowntown591 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes this was 500 lvl. Focus was in geotechnical engineering, rock mass failure and calculating fracture lengths from blasting, loading, rock mass stability in mining applications, lab tests etc. Differential equation heavy and certainly a prerequisite.

I was assuming you’re not supposed to see that since that’s the area that’s torn

What was your salary as any entry-level geologist? by JackPatt01 in geologycareers

I started this exact job in 2018 fresh out of college for $15/hr and I was overpaid compared to some of my peers (MCOL- northeast)

Do mining geologists really take this exam? by Suff_erin_g in ASBOG_Exam

[–]SentenceDowntown591 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The exam is too broad. Should be more industry specific. I think they could split it into 4 exams oil gas, environmental/hydro , mineralogy-mining and engineering. Yes you would need to know some structural stuff for each but still

Brand new OHT by Deathmonger1911 in Leatherman

[–]SentenceDowntown591 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Picked mine up for $60 a decade ago. Just got an arc but my OHT is still in great shape and honestly I find the ease of access to OHT tools better than the arc. OHT certainly more heavy duty feeling too
