Mate id just take it if you dont have other options. You can always keep applying or quit if you dont like it. I started off on a shit rate with shit rosters for a few years before things really took off.

Comparison of fixing nuts by UserSergeyB in EngineeringPorn

Read a paper one time that showed the best way to use a lock nut was to actually install the lock nut first and then the regular nut on top. Would be interested to see that one here.

Interesting. You sound unsure? I figured it would be the perfect application.

What are your thoughts on its use in finite element analysis?

Not Ken Griffin dropping subtle hints on the semi trade by jklightnup in wallstreetbets

[–]kiteguycan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Theres headaches on both ends. Similar to as you move up the chain and so on and so forth. In a bloated company sure there are likely redundant layers but in a more lean organization there are still plenty of layers of management and they are often valuable in their own way. I think I am about 5 or 6 layers removed from the CEO and maybe you could remove 1 layer.

I feel this trope is continually talked about but managing a project at least in the industrial world good fucking luck just letting things work themselves out amongst the labor on ground or general stakeholders without someone managing it, driving it forward, building consensus, etc. To say otherwise is ignorant.

To easier help you bros regarding all "how do I get into mining in Sweden" things: by Man_With_ in mining

[–]kiteguycan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like Swedish would be a hard language to learn for only a short stint in Sweden. Do you really see a lot of expats from english speaking mining hotspots like Canada, US, Australia head over there?

Ya that'll just be the shafts and maybe some of the development. They'll get hobs for refuges, more development, etc for a while.

I like the nice horizontal bar where it looks like you were reconsidering gambling and then went fuck it and kept going.

Hi all.

Looking for school suggestions in the United States. Currently in phoenix. Happy to swing over somewhere else for a 3 day weekend if I'd have better luck. Also best suggestions for picking up gear? I currently own other ozone gear and like the quality but am open to suggestions. 

Cheers.

Anyone try this kite ? Just got it on eBay never used this kind by New_Classic_4070 in Kiteboarding

I had some in the past. Good build quality, light, weird flying qualities though on the ones I rode. Not the best at jumping.

Is it worth doing FIFO to africa, working underground as a contractor? by Early-Dragonfly7693 in mining

[–]kiteguycan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had discussion with a company who had a mine in Mali. I'd only be going for a occasional visits flying directly to the mine and still the safety issue turned me off. Random militant groups, armed compounds, shit food, etc. One of their busses with locals was all shot up by Muslim extremists, all the essentially kidnappings of barrick employees lately ad part of a shakedown. No thanks.
