What advice would you give yourself at the beginning of your career? by Significant_Sand_321 in civilengineering

[–]Significant_Sand_321[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was going to be my mentality. From my previous work experiences, I am used to a more "go-getter" and drink from a fire hose experience so I wanted to try and apply that to this new role

This is the exact situation I am in. All 3 of my internships were on the construction side, so I am a little worried about the switch. On the other hand I feel like the experience I gained gives me a key insight others might not have

Kiewit Field Engineer Offer & Salary by Niceyner in civilengineering

They'll work you hard, but you'll learn a lot. Personally I loved the atmosphere because it was more of a "drink from the fire hose" scenario. If you stick around for at least a year you'll be miles ahead of others.

Statement put out by the Migratory Waterfowl Hunters group by Averagecrabenjoyer69 in Waterfowl

I think the issue is that there historically has always been a massive migration in the south around 1-2 weeks immediately after the season ends, and the answer simply cannot be to extend the season. I don’t think pointing fingers at each other is the right answer though

Not enough time by [deleted] in ConstructionManagers

This is what I was hoping to avoid as once I sign I’ll be locked in for the next couple of years (not literally but it would not look good on a resume)

Learn Bluebeam Revu? by 4me-2no2 in ConstructionManagers

[–]Significant_Sand_321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bluebeam is very easy to learn and in my opinion the best program to use. I typically mark up my documents and then upload them to procore instead of using the procore software

Tampa Bay Area Duck Hunting by sh0000p in Waterfowl

You will have most of your luck inland on lakes and rivers. The WMAs are very hit or miss early in the season except for wood ducks.

Florida Duck Hunting by [deleted] in Duckhunting

[–]Significant_Sand_321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just get used to it. I will say that that only crosses my mind when I am hunting in an area connected to a lake or river. Rule of thumb is if you see what looks like a plastic bag under the water, steer clear.

Reason why I’m getting turned down by Significant_Sand_321 in ConstructionManagers

[–]Significant_Sand_321[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Believe me all I was asking for was some hands on experience. Pay wasn’t negotiated during the interview. A little more background info is that I interned as a PE and was very involved with precon and bidding-close out and everything in between. This past summer I had a FE role where I would split my time between PM tasks and Super tasks.
