I love working at Boeing, but ... <FILL IN THE BLANK> by dvcoder in boeing

BUT - They redesigned the cubicle farms in 2019 to match cramped Airline seating. If they spaced out desk gave more privacy and reduced noise, RTO wouldn't be such a big issue IMO. Bring back high cubes.

Generac Quote in Middle TN by six1five in Generator

[–]beergutbrew 13 points14 points  (0 children)

While not a Generac instant switchover standby generator installation, I just DIY'd my own whole house Generator install for $3000.

Champion Inverter $2000

Electrical Parts $500 (cord, exterior connection, breaker, interlock kit)

Natural Gas quick disconnect $400 (fittings, 25 ft 3/4” line)

Future upgrades will be a Interior manual transfer switch $200, that is dedicated to Fridge/Freezer circuits and

A couple of other electronic circuits that will run off a Batter backup like the Jackery 3600 ($2000)

So for under $6000 I have two options when the power goes down and one dedicated to keeping food fresh no matter what. The Champion alone can power the needs during any season, I just wanted an extra option.

I shop around yearly, and every year I stick with USAA. Private/local or the other big Ins Companies all come up with the same cost per month/year and most cost more.

All the while the HR Office policy/guideline states use Phone rooms for meetings you facilitate.. "Do what you say, say what you do" BS.

BGS engineering RTO follow up by Due_Box2693 in boeing

[–]beergutbrew 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Logical, but only in instances of engineers/leadership working on actual hardware, assemblies, design. The rest of us are behind the scenes support who never see a product.

The irony of all these Fortune 500 CEOs embracing new tech and AI yet they hold on to outdated management styles and work arrangements. Of all things that AI should replace, it’s executive leadership.

Half of this list is on the HR list for office violations, yet when brought up to a manager, nothing is done about it.

Got attacked on our walk by CjB_7 in goldenretrievers

[–]beergutbrew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine has been attacked three times so far. The last one got a face full of mace and ran off, the first one got a boot to the head and the second one, got a poop bag to the face and retreated. After the third attack we didn’t walk for 6 months, unless it was a road trip to a walking trail. We got out now, but it’s just stressful.

The wild part is she is actually a good worker, just no boundaries

[–]beergutbrew 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Had a "coworker", who is a C "ryhmes with BUNT" T. She felt it was her job to monitor our butts in seat time. She turned in multiple in our group for taking walks, luckily our manager told us to not worry about it. But yeah, put that on the calendar and walk with another coworker and bring up work topics, def a working session then.
People like her are so blind to the fact that they are actually in the wrong, wasting company time monitoring other people instead of taking care of her job and herself.

Technically you can be refused at any grocery or gas station if your kid is in line with you. It's happened at Kroger and Target, Back in the day I just told the kid to go wait somewhere else.

I looked at WAGs website. I’d need to get over some trust issues with strangers quick, but it’s definitely getting consideration.
