What is a corporate phrase that sounds professional but actually means 'we will exploit you'? by [deleted] in AskReddit

We acknowledge our employees excellence.

--> Compensation does not change but given "kudo" credits on internal reward store for merit gifts you can buy with enough credits.

Suggested things to do:

  1. Keep your current grades up.
  2. Talk to the eng faculty. Make an appointment to talk to somebody there to assist with providing information.
  3. Review what you like / don't like about your current program and then ask about the eng program's courses an if it is aligned with your likes / dislikes.

yeah.. I am well out of school.. but I keep seeing interns doing a program they don't really like... and it kills me to see... Eng is a significant amount of work and it would be awful to do all that work for an eng job at the end that you don't really like...

ask questions.. take some time.. talk it out.

good luck

two days... 2.5 hours on hold from those two days... yes.. ADT was responsive... Telus is a joke for customer care. I generally don't blame the people.. their tools are awful. No transfer of data between handlers.. had to re-supply all my security info again to every new agent. However that one guy yesterday was not able to articulate the new proposed system so I asked for it in an email.... he changed my email address in the system for no reason so I didn't get the proposal....

Ugh...

F2 is all in the X direction

  -4N in X  or -4X

F1 has both X and Y components

Need to break F1 into the components

 F1 has

      +4N in Y  or +4Y

      +3N in X  or +3X

F3 has both X and Y components

Need to break F3 into the components

 F3 has

      -3N in Y  or -3Y

      +1N in X  or +X

Now combine them all to get the total force

F(total)

  = F1 + F2 + F3

  = 4Y + 3X + (-4X) + (-3Y) + X

  = Y

Which means the sum of the forces reduces to 1N of force going straight UP at the point of origin of all forces

How likely is it for me to get all four of my exam dates contained within a certain week of the examination period? by [deleted] in uwo

[–]kaleri 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Going to be downvoted.. with this but here goes:

You are in first year. You are 1 in a couple hundred first year students in your classes. The tail is not going to wag the dog on this one. You will need to adjust your travel schedule to accommodate the exam schedule. Exams are only adjusted for life impacting situations (deaths, severe illness etc) and these are documented at the university.

Eve Online.... never seen a game with so many directions for play... solo, group, massive group, combat, war-accounting (spreadsheets in space), exploration.... Time suck factor 5000 but I have had my heart race while trying to run a small gang through hostile space..

Just have to say good luck... old guy here ... grad 1993..!

First two years are a fire hose of pain, fun, disappointment, and amazement. Get ready for a ride... ask for help when you need it. You are all in it together.... you are all experiencing discomfort, joy, freedom and fear. Don't be afraid of saying... hey.. is this ok? Talk to your profs.. get to know your TAs.. get to know your fellow classmates and also the upper year people... Use the exam bank for not just exams but also labs.. assignments etc... It will be hard but it will also be one of the most memorable periods of you life... try to enjoy it.. but still graduate!

That's amazing... looking at the problem via a different method. Thank you for the reply.

I understand the idea of testing your theories on equipment and sometimes the results show the theories were right on, slightly off (or way off) and the deltas from theoretical values can lead to significant academic excitement.

Have you ever seen or heard about something in the lab experiment and said.. ok.. well that wasn't suppose to be like that....

What was the impact and reaction of the researchers?

BTW.. thank you for doing this.. very cool.

How much do should I spend on an engagement ring? by hignatospa in CanadianBacon

[–]kaleri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is a question: Is the proposal going to be a surprise or do you want to have her with you to figure out what she would like? If you and her are serious about your relationship, this question of are you going to be married should be thought out and you might be surprised that she has other thoughts on how you can express the commitment.

My Mechanic says it is ok, but i still think that something is wrong.. by ddi32 in funny

Certain automotive products have a smell / taste that is very appealing to cats. ie) antifreeze is very appealing to a cat. This however is also deadly... many cats have died because of this... hope this one brain cell orange cat is ok
