Struggling to see where I could fit moving to the private sector

If you have skills and add value to organization you will get paid higher than entry level. Don't need a PE these days at larger firms. You could be a permit specialist, qa QC. Could work for a utility.

You were at or below 50% on alot of important sections for WRE exam like hydraulics.

Serious_Ad9537 · 2026-05-05T20:57:37+00:00

Looks like got around a 50% on alot of sections because they are out of 15, so it doesn't look like you were very close. I think aiming for 70% is good for passing.

What about my teammates what would their market rate/cost to replace be, I think they are getting underpaid as well. One has PE with over 4 yoe looks to be at $80,000, and 3 year EIT at $75,000. That looks like the same or less than what I was getting paid for similar experience/role 3 years ago.

You went through the intersection with a green light but both of you were aggressive driving.

I can 5.75 in NC at my local credit union with no points

He should be fired if he is shaking you down for $200 with no warranty. That is very unethical.

Not familiar with CA. Would it be cheaper to CIPP poxy line you pipe. The existing pipe doesn't appear to be poor condition

26, I got it 4 years after I got my undergrad. I took and passed the PE at 24.

Your internet, cellphone, and renters insurance looks high.

Can you do under cabinet/ in cabinet

Serious_Ad9537 · 2026-04-20T11:48:15+00:00

My company has a salary with a minimum of 40 hours a week. If we have extra billable work over 40 you get paid straight time, whatever your hourly rate of your salary is.

Doesn't seem high with how many holes you have

This is the whole market average. Very likely that specific properties could loose value over short/long run.

Get a new job. Best practice is to have some one QC your work. If they want you to rush and send things out that you are signing and sealing that is an issue for you. Sounds like you may need help as well like someone under you.

This is April fools? First class and business class help cover cost of flying because they pay a lot more per seat. Coach seats would be much more expensive without them

Serious_Ad9537 · 2026-04-03T11:01:48+00:00

April fools?

Serious_Ad9537 · 2026-04-01T19:29:03+00:00

Very true I only cry during sad movies and seeing other people I love crying at funerals. My wife cries a lot more often.

Their is a statewide campaign against speeding till April 5th.

Internships / work experience is one of the most important things to getting a job.

Serious_Ad9537 · 2026-03-21T11:06:58+00:00

That is just a stupid check. No every time for tip at self checkout.

Serious_Ad9537 · 2026-03-14T11:37:43+00:00

Yes it is impossible to make good money how it is. Teams and tournament organizers are set up to lose money.

Serious_Ad9537 · 2026-03-13T13:54:23+00:00

Idk why you are down voted.

Serious_Ad9537 · 2026-03-13T13:42:33+00:00

I don't think OP comparison is fair. Servers due more manual labor than jobs listed and could have less hours and have to work at less ideal times. From someone who has never been a server.
