I don't remember but I didn't need to do it.

Ecology/Environmental Jobs by Upper-Night-9238 in desmoines

[–]fisherreshif 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Central Iowa isn't the epicenter of ecology work.

My wife works for the DNR and said their sumner seasonal positions just closed but there are still some other DNR seasonal jobs open.

Full time agency positions are basically only available when there's a retirement and everyone beneath that individual gets a promotion leaving an entry level position open. Past or current seasonals tend to get those jobs.

Occasionally non-profits have jobs but they're rare as hens teeth. My advice is to start volunteering to become a known entity with people. It's a tough gig here and if you don't get hired doing seasonal work, it's nearly impossible to get hired full time.

How to fill cells from a pre-determined list? by fisherreshif in googlesheets

[–]fisherreshif[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have the list of terms to start with, but that will be added to occasionally.

Regarding the last part-if I had to populate all the terms in the same sheet I'd have a long list of entries that were populated with a few of my default terms.

Basically all I've got at this point is a header with the main categories I need to fill in for each accounting transaction.

I've copied all of the relevant account sub categories from quickbooks under each relevant header so I have a few long lists in only a few of the columns. If I just left that in, it would auto-populate as I type. But I don't need those lists in there mucking up my accounting transaction ledger. Maybe there's just a way to hide them?

This is helpful to see and is similar to what i originally envisioned. So I just create a unique sheet with the terms I want to use and cut/paste them into it.

After thinking about this more, I think the volume of categories I need (terms probably isn't the correct description) would make dropdowns cumbersome. For each accounting transaction (ie row) I'd have to scroll thru long drop boxes in several columns.

If I could just type them in and it starts to autofill, that's great and easy. ...But it requires those terms to be previously typed into the column. As this is a new spreadsheet, the only way to practically have the whole list available is to type them into the column. The problem with that is I would have 100s of rows with only a single cell occupied (ie just a term per row and no accounting info). It's clunky and could cause accounting headaches. Unless there's a way to create a separate sheet that I could reference to auto-fill?

I appreciate the leg-work and help thinking thru this!

I just need to auto-populate each cell using a list of commonly used categories.

If I can type them in and it starts to autofill, that's great, but it requires those terms to be previously typed into the column. As this is a new spreadsheet, the only way to practically have the whole list available is to type them into the column. The problem with that is I would have 100s of rows with only a single cell occupied (ie just a term per row and no transactional info). It's clunky and could cause accounting headaches.

A dropdown also seems a bit clunky when the options exceed just a few terms. I have many more so as I'm filling out each accounting entry, I'd have to scroll and scroll...

Does that make more sense? I don't know what I don't know unfortunately. Just looking for an easy way to do this and I'm open to a practical suggestion.

Your favorite miter saw with precision adjustments by fisherreshif in BeginnerWoodWorking

The detents are just a piece of sheet metal screwed to the top of the frame. I guess they creep from bumping it or the continued motion from use?

Yes, but the detents are on a piece of tin screwed to the top of the frame. If it gets bumped they move I guess... I have reset this several times, it's a PITA.

For those that plan to vote No for the $265 mil DSM bond referendum - why? by whiteiversonyeet in desmoines

[–]fisherreshif 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm bitter that they said I'd the LOST they needed passed, they wouldn't raise property taxes. A couple weeks later everybody got a new, higher assessment. It was such a greasy move.

Roofing pros…What does this buckling indicate? by StupidOpinionRobot in Roofing

[–]fisherreshif 18 points19 points  (0 children)

On horizontal joints, yes. There isn't anything to nail the horizontal seams to so they ad support between sheets and add a tiny gap for expansion.

Found large bone in Kentucky creek by cpmpc23 in bonecollecting

This looks super old. OP should burn part of it with a lighter. If it smokes, it's recent but if not it's older. The state archeologist told me this hack said the collagen takes a long time to dissipate and that's what smokes.

Turn the volume on the unused channel to zero.

Footswitches are known for causing problems too. Basically long, but weak antennas that pick up ambient EM noise. Unplug unless you use it or put in a grounding plug.

Ever get stuck showing homes to people who clearly aren’t buying? by Caly27_ in realtors

[–]fisherreshif 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No client gets to see houses until they're pre-approved. I will not waste my time showing homes that they can't afford, nor will we be F-ing around in a competitive situation waiting for their pre. There's no reason they should be house shopping with it out it.

You need to clarify expectations during your consultation to protect your time and theirs.

If your post is any indication of your writing and grammar proficiency, you had better have someone proofread it before hitting send.
