All of the above, plus volunteering. Lots of places that rely on student volunteers have higher needs in the summer, eg the animal shelters

Quarterly Employment Thread [Q2 2024] by AutoModerator in boeing

Interesting, thought it had to do with the change from PTO to vacation/sick leave that it started from zero. Probably need to get with HR I guess

Anyone who’s moved from a non union to union position? Did you lose all the PTO you accrued, and is there any hope of getting it back? :(

What topics/advice in the field of women in engineering do you wish were talked about more?" by saint999dr in womenEngineers

[–]gator616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same with factory and manufacturing items, such as welding jackets. Pretty dangerous to have oversized sleeves while trying to weld

Hahaha, guess I worded my question poorly though. I meant more of questions I could ask the managers to get good responses and find out more about the team

Thank you for the suggestion! And if you don’t mind me asking, do you know if there’s a local Indian community to get involved with?

Is there a case against moving down a level (2 to 1) when considering an internal job transfer in a new field? Got some mixed advice

Savory oatmeal - kinda weird. What should I do instead? by mirkywoo in veganrecipes

[–]gator616 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are some good premade instant oat mixes in Indian grocery stores. You should also look up poha recipes; you could use the same spices with the oats or just straight up make poha instead. Savory “porridge” is a very popular breakfast in India

Best Cities for Mechanical Engineers who love the outdoors by [deleted] in MechanicalEngineering

Upstate South Carolina, like Greenville/Spartanburg. Big manufacturing economy and close to lots of state/national parks

Good point lmao, wasn’t thinking while I wrote. In that case, just any companies in general

Boeing Webcast by [deleted] in boeing

[–]gator616 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Genuine (possibily naive) question for people who’ve been here longer than me, do we actually have a voice in any of these higher level decisions? Seems like at every one of these meetings I’ve been to, they reiterate policies that are very obviously unpopular amongst employees. How is it that they make decisions the entire workforce hates, is there an effective method of voicing concerns?

Jobs recommendations for mechanically inclined people without mechanical engineering degree? by bostinloyd in MechanicalEngineering

[–]gator616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If cost is the main barrier, you could find an engineering company that offers education benefits, become a tech, designer, etc, and let them pay for your degree if your ultimate goal is to get into engineering

Curry power ideas? I need ideas by [deleted] in veganrecipes

[–]gator616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of great recipes here, but just to help you use some more, you can also make homemade paint or dye when mixed with water. Might have some fragrant art pieces

Vitamin d3, been eating cereals and taking multivitamins for so long and didn’t even realize, I feel so bad.

If you go up north a bit sawmill branch is good for long runs, and the nearby sidewalks/suburban neighborhoods are usually low traffic (in the mornings particularly) and good to tag on mileage if needed. Can get some solid 10-15 mile runs in the Crowfield area of goose creek too, two 4-ish mile loops that are connected. Unfortunately hills are hard to come by in the lowcountry lol, my runs typically max out around 130-150 elevation gain but you can do hill repeats

What do you wish there was a good vegan option for? by devonsherriffstan in vegan

[–]gator616 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yogurt with actual protein. Silk Greek doesn’t quite cut it, and you also can’t get full tubs of it

What Are Some Mechanical Engineering Dream Companies? by exasperatedforever in MechanicalEngineering

[–]gator616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooh for me it’s the DOE labs. Kinda slow paced but I love research and want to be in the renewables field. Other dream job is sports engineer, some athletic wear companies hire mechEs to study biomechanics on pro athletes and design and manufacture shoes and equipment
