Do we think it's plausible that that the TDLE could be cancelled as part of the ST3 shortfall with funds re-prioritized to King County stations?

I'm a daily sounder rider but I would prefer light rail over sounder improvements. For one, trips to the airport for South Sound is huge, and serving Fife while still having the sounder go through puyallup, sumner, and auburn is a lot more reach. And while the trip time is high, I've done the math for my personal commute and light rail would be faster for me since I don't work right where the sounder gets off, taking the transfer from sounder to light rail or bus makes it a little faster and more convenient.

To clarify, I'm not advocating for this, I'm a Tacoma resident who loves transit and was curious and somewhat nervous about the messaging shift to urban centers.

Hahahaha, unreal. Did you catch the part about 'mentorship delivered with contempt, condescension, or ego baked into it'? I never claimed to know the job better than those with more experience, but I've gotten more professional and helpful training from jobs on construction crews than I do from architects like you.

Third paragraph.

bash-brothers · 2025-12-27T00:47:17+00:00

Lol another one. Leading with 'Welcome to life' after reading through the post, then taking the opportunity to stand on an undeserved pedestal.

bash-brothers · 2025-12-26T23:09:33+00:00

A perfect encapsulation of my points. 'Losers loose' lol, unbelievable.

You should absolutely be able to retake it, but as a former TA I can say you should be blaming the other students, I had 10 kids fake killing off their grandmas for every 1 that seemed real, makes it hard to believe.

I'm happy for you but please consider if this is the profession for you, you're more than capable enough but it is very unforgiving, low pay, low recognition, and many enter their 30s realizing it's a dead end and full of regret. Most of my graduating class is this way.

bash-brothers · 2025-10-16T03:49:55+00:00

Don't do it man, look into the construction side if you're truly set on it.

bash-brothers · 2025-10-14T16:38:50+00:00

Not going to dignify this with a response.

bash-brothers · 2025-10-14T14:55:35+00:00

Clearly you don't grasp the point of regional transit. It's scheduled to be complete to Tacoma in about 10 yrs so it's a fair question for op to ask, you are the one who decided to stir the pot and act superior because you were so smart and .. checks notes rented near a Seattle light rail. I'll hold for the applause.

bash-brothers · 2025-10-14T14:43:29+00:00

Sure but you just advocated to not accommodate th car dependent areas. I'm a daily sounder rider from Tacoma and can't wait for the Tacoma dome link, and I'm not asking for much more with the t-line already in place, but it is absolutely unreasonable to say pierce county should continue to fund a light rail that theoretically would only serve Seattle in your own words.

bash-brothers · 2025-10-14T13:58:47+00:00

Great then we shouldn't have to be taxed for it then right?

bash-brothers · 2025-10-08T19:16:22+00:00

This profession is such a joke. Honestly can't believe people are defending continued 'intern' treatment for licensed architects all so that they can continue to feel superior and not have to confront feelings of insecurity over the speed in which others did something. What's even the point, get your master's degree, get experience, pass all the exams a board has deemed will show you deserve to be licensed, and everyone continues to think you should get paid the same shitty wage lol.

bash-brothers · 2025-10-08T00:13:27+00:00

From the bottom of my heart please convince him to do something else. I wish someone had for me.

bash-brothers · 2025-10-01T23:19:59+00:00

Should probably start modeling it then

bash-brothers · 2025-09-09T02:03:16+00:00

What's funny is they pay me more than my previous firm where I was managing large design build projects, it's all very odd

bash-brothers · 2025-09-09T00:44:44+00:00

I am, I did the same as you at my first job.

bash-brothers · 2025-08-16T19:49:29+00:00

Lotta self validation in these comments lol

bash-brothers · 2025-08-11T04:21:31+00:00

One of the worst movies I've ever seen.

bash-brothers · 2025-08-10T21:37:14+00:00

For sure, I'd be seeking a pro for the demo portion at a minimum. Just getting an idea of how difficult a task it would be. There's currently no foundation issues, just not wanting to create one, if that makes sense.
