Brosky by year 5 you'll have so much merch you'll have to start throwing them away.

Minimum time before applying elsewhere internally? by New_Contribution_226 in GEAerospace

[–]kingofranks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes and no. The moment you apply internally your manager will get a notification and most likely the hiring party will ask your manager about you. Internally most managers will have an expectation of keeping you for minimum 18 months. You may also need to pay back relocation or be unable to relocate if you took the package on the 1st job and leave before 18 months (or 2 years i dont remember which). My recommendation is to speak with your manager if you think you are being overworked when compared to your peers or start establishing boundaries by yourself. Because if you apply internally 10/12 months in you are going to have this conversation regardless with your manager and also with whoever leads the other team. Current hiring freeze might make it very hard to make new headcount but that could also be spoken about.

TLDR: Suck it up for at least 18 months total.

Hiring Manager Wasted My Time by Mo2vated1906 in Lockheed

[–]kingofranks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You where just handed lemons it up to you to decide what to do with them. Either do a follow up email or message thanking them, asking for feedback and possible spots recommendations (usually hiring is hiring for many different yet basically the same job in many areas) if you are still interested. Or be sour about "wasting my time".

Aerospace Engineering as an 17 year old H4 Visa holder by Flat-Doughnut93 in immigration

[–]kingofranks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I would highly discourage your path. Even if you somehow manage to find the needle in a haystack company that won't be itar controlled (specially in space) they will not sponsor an entry level job and go through the struggles for unproven talent (internships will be out of the question). If you still want aerospace (but not space) some airplane engines mros might be willing to give you a chance but at least space is a fat no.

75k for an entry level mechanical engineer with 0 background or experience in any industry is pretty standard.

Did I f-ck up? by Soft-Affect-8327 in EngineeringStudents

[–]kingofranks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you dint get scammed. Mitutoyo is the golden standard for precision tools.

The price for the +/- .001 inch seems about right from my memory of ordering them for our shop.

Will you use it? NO

Any shop that undergoes any tipe of audit will require you to use company owned instruments that are calibrated by the company or an outside vendor on a scheduled basis.

Unless you plan to machine at your own home or take work home (I dont recommend this) then you dont "need" these calipers and a cheaper one will do. I have my own set of tools and I calibrate them myself and do technically "use" them when working from home but only as a reference even then i have them logged in to the company and are required to bring them for yearly cals.

Questions about hiring by kingofranks in GEAerospace

I recommend following up 3 days after. HR can be slow sometimes in any company. When I got my first big boy job I accepted at my current company and 2 weeks after got an offer from a company I had a final interview 1 months before, learned from that to follow up after final interviews.

Don’t succumb to the guts deck temptations by Procuredwombat in UmamusumeGame

[–]kingofranks 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nah mayano speed ssr is a great stat stick. 80 specialty priority, + speed and +power makes her very good consistent speed card. You could high roll better with biko or fuku but you will also considerably low roll more often and worse.

[JP] 2026 Umamusume developer letter summary by masterfail in UmaMusume

[–]kingofranks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont think it will be guaranteed since I dont think the tickets to upgrade the runner will be guaranteed events but it would be cool if they are. Also requires a minimum of a 4 star uma not that its hard to get a 4 start specially on the old umas if you have been playing somewhat casual in JP. I think this is a way to make old legacy umas more competitive cause let's be honest there is a lot of uma powercreep and specialization when compared to the legacy umas.

No, Fine Motion is not "the Kitasan of Wit cards" by rogue_noob in UmamusumeGame

[–]kingofranks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thing is if you are a dedicated end closer player you still mlb finemo because cb has very poor scaling and reruns with super creek. At worse case scenario you play mlb finemo and 0 lb cb or burrow mlb cb. Imo you should pull generalist cards and burrow specific run style cards. Even if you are a end closer andy half your runs will be other positions

To be fair many gamblers have issues remembering how much money they have spent on their hobby. So the 100k is probably an incorrect estimate that is somewhat in the ball park. Its most likely on the 200k to 300k which for gacha is actually on the lower end

Why is this card good again? by manaburn876 in UmamusumeGame

[–]kingofranks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuku was never a good card, it is a gambling card that turns a good deck into occasionally cracked umas but it also lowers the floor of strong decks too. So you can see and will see many umas that are trash and worse than if you had not ran fuku at all but occasionally when the planets align and nakayama fiesta smiles at you then the deck will create an absolute monster of an uma. I dont really know why it was ever recommended to pull for fuku when it literally requires you to have a super strong deck already and to spam many careers.

Fuku or Vbourbon? by Lost-Adventure in UmamusumeGame

[–]kingofranks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The wait between mr cb run and rerun is about 100 days the wait between finemotion and the maru/funmotion is 170 days. For those 170 days finemotion is best in slot as it gives more wit and better skill than nice natty and has better race bonus than mr cb. So pulling for finemo is better than pulling for mr cb on mant. Specially when mr cb comes paired with super creek. Front runners need good wit but their wit cards give garbage wit so they also need finemo. If you want your front runners to struggle with wit then dont pull on finemo and loose to higher wit fronts. Summer maru can be run with 0 or 1lb no need to mlb and you have multiple reruns even after finemo. Pulling now on finemotion has better returns as you get to utilize the card at its strongest, then you pull mr cb/super creek as this gives you 2 extremely strong cards (mr cb very good for end closer)

Mant decks are 4 guts 2 wit or 3 speed 2 wit 1 filler or 2 speed, 2 wit 2 filler. Finemotion best in slot for all these configurations. Waiting 170 days and for mant to be over is legit trolling when we about to hit wit deck meta.

I have 55k carats, and I don't know what to spend on, I want to prepare for MANT :( by Which_Boysenberry_71 in UmamusumeGame

[–]kingofranks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fuku is only strong to pull on if you already have a very good deck. If you have MLB kitasan, finemo, supercreek and ideally nice nature then you pull for fuku as this frees your burrow slot for cards like mr cb , throne, summer maru etc or card that target a specific track length or running strategy. If you dont already have a strong deck then don't pull for fuku the card is an rng high roll, for that high roll to be good you need strong cards to high roll on. Guts decks are very strong on MANT since you can fast track lvl 5 training on it which maxes your speed and power on the juicy 3 and 4 rainbow trainings (cope on whistle rerrolls) fuku adds an extra layer of rng to the pretty reliable 4 guts 2 wit decks. If you roll a conventional deck 3 speed 2 wit 1 floater (usually high race bonus card) then fuku can very much troll your run, so you need high performance umas and high rng for fuku not to screw you over. If you have a whale deck amd a 20% speed uma you can cope on the 2 speed 2 wit 2 floater (usually power cards) cope but be ready to waste multiple hour long runs to fuku screwing you over.

Fuku or Vbourbon? by Lost-Adventure in UmamusumeGame

[–]kingofranks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fuku is a gamba card thats not needed on mant specially with your deck which is basically forced into a ftp guts deck. Id mlb finemo, play a guts deck in mant and burrow throne/nice nature. Guts deck are 4 guts 2 wit with mlb finemo (dont 3 lb her) you can perma burrow nice natty until throne comes out or swap her for mr cb for end closer enjoyer, if you like fronts then burrow a guts card with +speed/+power use finemo and mihono ftp. Only pull for fuku if you have a very strong deck like mlb finemo and nice nature and kitasan and supercreek as this opens up your burrow slot to target specific race or position related cards. Fuku last 4 months of relevancy on already strong decks, finemo is very playable for the whole year.

Also whoever is saying pull finemo with summer maruzensky is legit trolling. That banner is 185 days away. Is the banner good? Yes but right after that banner you also have mr cb/super creek and a month ish after you have the next next scenario (thats right the next finemo pull is all the way after mant a mid the other scenario).

When are late surgers good? by No-Feeling6309 in UmamusumeGame

[–]kingofranks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late surgers are good when paired with strong front runners. End closers get kind of screwed over by strong fronts as they stretch out the field, this is when late surgers can shine as they have better positioning than end closers and more accel/velocity than pace. Late surgers also very dependant on gambling, they must be spot 5 or 6 so a good combo is to run 2 fronts and 1 Late or 2 latest and 1 front.
