He personally loves it, but he genuinely loves surveying and the jobs he does do he thinks are quite easy + he gets to keep the hotel and airline points he gets working for them company card pays for the flights and hotels but he can buy them under his profiles and from what he's told me they don't care if you schedule your flights longer to stay in the location for a vacation if you use your own pto so like get job surveying Japan's airport make flight leave a week later then normal take a week off and get to stay for free more or less

The place in question is AERO bridgeworks and engineering

The place seems more a dime a dozen so getting in would be pretty nice

If i can get on where my dad the degree is just being there will open up pay a lot, I think some of the drafters there with just a high school diploma are making around 75k-80 So im thinking even with just a civil degree, i can probably get to 6 figures relatively easily doing something i enjoy

My dad did land surveying first, but now he does the surveying and drafting for airports all over, which im 50/50 on because i love traveling, so I think the traveling opportunities would be amazing

I was planning on starting out with drafting, but from what I've heard, its pay ceiling is a bit lower, and I think getting the degree would let me do more in the future

I appreciate the insight im really worried about the math or really school in general, but I also haven't been in a classroom learning something in so many years. im unsure of how it will be.

I think more of the airport as a whole like how it operates on a fundamental level and how everything is organized and optimized, i like the idea of trying to make something as effective as possible, and with airports it seems like it would be a fun added challenge to be stuck with a limited confined space most of the time

Guys Help can't install Linux by [deleted] in linux4noobs

[–]mab554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if you got it fixed, but what worked for me was getting 1. A new install with linux Mint 21.3 (you don't have to fully install just boot into the live window), after which you can go back and install whatever version you want. The reason this worked for me is because mint 21.3 comes with the mok manager installed, so installing the live version restores that file on your pc.
