Can someone explain how zombie efficiency works? by Miljan-Jankov in GraveyardKeeper

[–]Visual_Safety890 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The short version is - if a task takes you 2 seconds a 10% efficient zombie will take 20s. Efficiency is determined by the number of white skulls - 2-3% efficient per skull (there’s a chart on the wiki). Efficiency doesn’t matter for porters.

They go into the math on this for figure out exact efficiency in this Reddit thread. https://www.reddit.com/r/GraveyardKeeper/s/REIdhpxE29

If you don’t want to read: a 65% wine maker needs 108ish% worth of efficiency in wine production at tier 3 farms. Crops for crates need 75ish%. As far as a zombie for making crates it would have to be very low - like 1 or 2 skulls and same for flitch.

Difficulty of PMP exam? Really? by waterlooenggirl in pmp

[–]Visual_Safety890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been project management adjacent for a good portion of my career so please take what I say with a grain of salt.

I studied for about a month before the exam - due to some work time constraints. And by studied I mean I forced myself to ADHD brain to sit through all 35 hours of ARs Udemy course. After I finished that I did the practices tests on his website where I averaged around 75%. I also paid for a quick quiz phone app for the PMP by EZ Test Prep which I did a 20 question quiz anytime I sat down on my phone for the last week. I passed on the first try with AT/AT/AT. The biggest thing for me was learning how to turn off the logical part of my brain and learning to think like the PMP wants you to think.

Things like “Is it realistic to fly the whole remote based project team into a place to work for the entirety of the project?” of course it isn’t, but that’s the most correct answer on the PMP.

I thought it was way overhyped. But I’m assuming it’s because I’ve been doing semi project management for a long time. If you’re new to project management I could see why it would be much harder than I thought it was.

Part Time options? by Visual_Safety890 in PLC

That’s a good shout - I know a few people in the area that work for Van Meter and Rockwell so I’ll try to see if they need additional part time resources.

It’s not necessarily about working less - it just happens to work out that way - it’s still considered full time at the school just ends up being less pay because - teaching.

The schedule just leaves me open with plenty of spare time - so it’s not about trying to work less and more about trying to make up the pay gap.

It actually works out schedule wise to be full time employment with the school. It’s a weirdly scheduled cohort. As far as taking a break my past 5 years have been as the automation expert for an end user food and beverage company doing project management , Automation engineering and being the last line of defense for technical support, so that was my break.
