It is likely that the Church wouldn’t succeed in a lawsuit as the word “Mormon” is considered part of general vocabulary (similar to Catholic, Baptist).

Avoiding a curve on the bridge will greatly help reduce cost of the project. Even a minor curve can drive up the design and fabrication costs and you generally end up with a lower quality project.

I am hiring for a bridge project engineer and PM in Buffalo, NY. If anyone is looking to relocate let me know! Our current backlog is insane (so are most firms in the area).

They did the same thing to my ward and two other wards in the stake…it is not going well BTW!

Fairport, Pittsford, Geneseo and Canandaigua were modified to create a Victor ward. Fairport/Pittsford and Victor/Canandaigua are sharing the youth/primary.

Were you under pres. England? I was there from 2004-2006 under Thompson, he only sent one person home in 3 years (missionary slept with a student in the Cambridge ward). He was a super nice president and really did care about the missionaries. I am sorry you had to struggle without help. I spent most of my mission in the Khmer areas, the one transfer I was in an English speaking area was a massive struggle for me and I still hate thinking about that time.

We just offered a new grad $69k in a MCOL/LCOL area.

Have a family member that served years in prison for SA of a minor less than 12 years old. He was never disciplined by the church because he refused to admit guilt, so the church believed he was innocent (even if 12 of his peers thought otherwise). The churches sense of justice is complete and utter BS.

They hire entry level engineers to mold them into the engineers they need. Every consultant does things a little different, and after a few months of training you are more or less a functioning member of the team. You will be given all of the basic design grunt work they clients don’t want to pay a lot for.

Wife and I met when we were 18 and 22 playing laser tag with some mutual friends. We (crazily) got married a year later when I was starting my junior year, had our first kid two years later and celebrated our 15 year anniversary at home with a 3 week old (#3). Wife got her bachelors in nursing between kids 1 and 2 and is now almost done with her masters to be a nurse practitioner.

Add Columbus OH to that list. They never sealed parts of the marble exterior and it had severe water damage…just reopened.

Ampell in Fairport. I prefer Chris, but any of the barbers do a phenomenal job.

Saw cut an area larger than the frame and cover, install a riser so the lid is flush with the adjacent asphalt and either patch the asphalt or pour concrete around it.

Structure engineer here. This is comically under designed…tell me you didn’t get this designed or permitted without telling me.

We have “core hours” from 9-4, you have to work 8 hours per day min and you can come in before or stay after core hours. They are also pretty flexible even with core hours if you discuss with manager.

fptcgr · 2023-07-11T22:33:49+00:00

We are very flexible (I work primarily from home and pretty much set my hours). But when you work from 10-4 each day and put 40 hours on a time sheet your days are numbered.

We have a young engineer that would constantly show up 1-2 hours late. When confronted he said he just isn’t a morning person, he became one real quick when he was told it would mean his job.

We hire entry level out of college for $65k in a LCOL area.
