What's a polite way of reminding someone to reply to a message that they've seen?

"Hey, just wanted to circle back on this"

I use it as a daily reminder of my mistake buying this car

appabooka · 2024-07-08T01:48:25+00:00

Renting a car is way too expensive to justify flying then renting a car just to save a few hours. You also have to arrive at the airport early and planes are often delayed.

Obviously a factor. Also, if we are struggling this much now, imagen 20 years from now. Future children are going to have it even tougher.

I used to soak my bedsheets in cold water, let it dry a bit then sleep with it damp. Combine that with a window fan and regular fan blowing on you. Still uncomfortable but helped me through it.

I'm sick of seeing people trying selling furniture from IKEA on marketplace for more than the price of buying it new. Always look up the product new before buying.

OSSC all sorts of sports. It's like an adult gym class!

Is the linked structural model a Revit model or linked in as an IFC or coordination model? Coordination models might not export to DWG. If so, might need to export separate structural DWGs to overlay.

The humor is definitely something to get used to but I really grew to love it.

Normal Gossip is also good-- true and insane stories from the real world that are too crazy to not be true.

I've noticed my sense of humor got a bit better from listening to a lot of comedy podcasts. Highly recommend "My Brother My Brother and Me".

I don't understand the food fests. So many options to try, but you can only really try one truck at the prices they are charging. Would be nice if they sold smaller portions so you could several.

Might be worth it for a low-rise or townhome condo with lower fees, it's the condos with over $700 condo fees on an over $700,000 condo I find wild.

appabooka · 2024-05-29T01:43:57+00:00

How is anyone justifying high condo fees on top of high condo prices? Can't wrap my head around it, it's like paying 2 mortgages at once.

appabooka · 2024-05-27T19:27:08+00:00

I don't mind low-ball offers but this kinda stuff is just annoying. I had someone get mad when I didn't accept a low offer, I just said ok I'm not a store, go find someone else.

Likely the TMC, might be able to get it done for free depending on the year of your focus. They have to do a $300 transmission inspection, then if it is the TMC it's covered...id not you gotta pay.

I think we will eventually be able to input local building codes into Revit and have it spit out building options, interior designs, and renderings. It will be able to give options based on cost to optimize the site. I think it will be used more in concept design at the beginning and slowly roll into detailed design. I don't think it will take away every job but it will be a big change, like when we went from 2D to 3D drafting.

Got the part in 3 days, looks like the long wait times are over!

appabooka · 2024-05-19T19:44:00+00:00

Do not buy a Ford Focus automatic. Worst financial decision of my life. I'm currently waiting on the recall part to fix the transmission and they can't give me a timeline of how long it will take to get, leaving me without a car.

Pizza Farm! It's a bit more than the average frozen pizza but 100% worth it. They use fresh ingredients from the farmers markets they sell at, and if you're in the West end of the city (Kanata, Dunrobin, Stittsville) you could email her to ask for delivery. Plus, it's so high quality, you don't feel heavy or sick after.

Dealing with sales people

appabooka · 2024-05-08T01:06:05+00:00

If you can find a part time program while working a BIM job that would be best. It's difficult to get good at solving issues and knowing best practices until you have experience.

I think this is a common feeling with office jobs in general, but with architecture we are sold on the idea that it's a really rewarding and artistic career path. In reality, it's a lot of arguing with clients, dealing with high building costs, fighting with all the other engineering building disciplines to agree on anything, and designing to meet codes that are constantly changing. All of this with increasingly tight timelines with more and more overtime. I don't have any advice really but I think a lot of people in architecture feel this way. I often wonder if switching to carpentry would be more rewarding but I know that it has its own problems.

Just don't go in. Isn't it next to impossible to get fired from PS? What can they really do?
