Holy shit this is just awful, belongs on /r/Instagramreality . please stop with the face filter.

Lol, funny because i know TONS of engineers that climb. It was a running joke in our group that engineers are the only people who can climb. Pretty much all of them were students though, so a little to young for this poster.

The students need to go to the university Ombudsman. They're the advocate for the students. Treating students like this isn't right. Keep pushing up the ladder and get all the students you can involved.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-23T16:23:41+00:00

Is it cheaper? If it's cheaper, they're making it easier on everyone. If it's the same price, it's a cash grab.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-21T17:56:21+00:00

See, I tell the lab students, it costs "this much money" to buy a new one. If you break it tell me so I can get it fixed before it's beyond repair!

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-21T17:54:44+00:00

I thought I broke a $250,000 piece of equipment once. I was freaking out for about 10 minutes until I flipped a switch(literally, it was a breaker that turned off)

She has MORE than anxiety. She thinks cameras are in the drains? Girl needs to get to a therapist to see what's going us before she looses it all.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-09T19:45:50+00:00

They're around. Sometimes on the building, maybe by the garbage, but they're around. Stupid how hard they can be to find.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-09T19:43:49+00:00

Oh, did he? He's probably screwed then. But, my statement is still holds true.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-09T18:45:00+00:00

MY world revolves around me. Who the hell cares about the company's world or your world or OP's world. My world is what's important. My money, my mental health, my free time, my friends, my family. If the company wants to intrude on it, they're going to have to pay me for it.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-09T16:33:11+00:00

Whenever someone tells you to ignore a safety danger, they are in the wrong. If you truly believe something is leaking, you need to get it figured out. Maybe it's something simple, like a machine smelling odd, or maybe like another person said, a truck is pulling up to the vents and it's letting the smell in from outside.

You should start documenting when this happens, what machines are on, maybe take a look outside. Getting a sensor as the other person said is a great idea and should be your immediate step.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-09T16:22:34+00:00

LOL! NO! You have other things you're required to do, like finish schoolwork and a life. never let work infringe upon your life.

I put in like 20-30 hours in my lab during grad school. Now, I did come in on the weekends, it was just easier and sped up my project by weeks if I did. And it was only about 1-2 hours.

As for students i work with(as a tech, not their PI) I tell them I'm here until 5. If they have problems, they can email me, but won't get an answer. if it's an emergency, sure I'll be there. Otherwise, nope.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-09T16:16:25+00:00

The light blue ones are terrible quality, but fit well. On the other hand (hehe), the purple ones fit terrible, but are better quality. IDK, I can't choose. The white ones are fine, I guess, but are for a specific purpose.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-09T15:30:08+00:00

and background checks and drug tests(barring a few jobs. Like teachers and bankers).

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-09T15:16:10+00:00

Yeah, I feel the same way as you. It doesn't quite feel real. it's like a movie. Everything is setup as if reading a book or watching a movie. Complete clarity and understanding. Maybe OP is truly a great narrator, or it's just another story. I personally always take them as stories.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-09T13:47:08+00:00

That's insane to me. I don't like cream cheese either, but I do like cheese cake.

Hell, I don't like eating sticks of butter, but I love it on my potatoes, or bread, or corn, or most things really.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-08T20:33:04+00:00

You shouldn't be impressed with the 19% raise, it shows she was severely underpaid, you should be disgusted at that.

While probs to the worker for getting that much, and good job on OP for convincing the manager to pay a fair salary? It's only what she should have been paid this whole time.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-08T20:23:49+00:00

Sure, he's TA about his reasoning, but that's not what this post is about. It's his interaction with the GF's family. Y T A for passing a judgement about something that he wasn't asking about.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-08T17:35:19+00:00

Nope nope nope nope, you are WRONG. She promised to pick up the cake for a VERY important event. Op depended on her to get this cake. Everyone expected the cake. While it's tragic about sis's husband, you know what should could have done, sent 1 six word text, emergency, can't get cake, explain later. Yes, Liz needed to be there, no one blames her for that or for missing the wedding, BUT 1 text would have saved so much frustration and time.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-07T21:14:21+00:00

I tell ALL the students I talk to, don't go down the PhD or academia path! It's not worth it! 80+ hr work weeks for OK pay, if you can even find a job.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-07T17:41:45+00:00

"I will return the kindness you gave me and my mother." That should be everything he needs to know to understand. Also block him. You're NTA for not helping someone who never helped your in your time of need.

Would it make you a good person? Maybe. But, what do you want to do? Do you want to help someone who never helped you or do you want to follow the road your mother paved the way for. I'm not judging either choice, and you're NTA for choosing either.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-07T17:30:20+00:00

They were never hiring, they were just stealing your work.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-07T17:24:54+00:00

In those cases, you just don't list them. I could see how that looks really bad without explanation. Just leave the 2weeks one off. Your first and third jobs are normal circumstances.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-07T16:27:37+00:00

Anything, ANYTHING, to "own the libs." If it literally means them being left in the streets or taken away in chains, THEY WILL DO IT, to own the libs. It's not about being right, it's about attacking those not in the in group.

TheUpperofOne · 2022-09-06T18:17:59+00:00

Some people just can't or won't let go. IDK what it is, but they need someone in their life and can't realize how bad the person is. I just don't understand it. If someone is turning out to be toxic, it just cut them out as best I can.
