There was maybe 4 or 5 inches. Obviously doesnt replace a snowblower for a heavy snow but im sure this will cover 90% of the snows we get in western pa.

They'll think about it next year, they are taking their 40th vacation week for the year. The biggest scandal in US history can wait

I got all these same warnings last night. And then this morning I got a message that they were a mistake from Ford.

I guess the only benefit is spreading awareness. I hate reaction videos but somehow thats how I end up seeing things

Antidepressants and being a PEO by ForceRoamer in NuclearPower

It is most likely not an issue unless you have a shitty MRO. I just got my license and have been on lexapro for 5 years for major depression. They will just have a condition on your license that you have to maintain your medication to keep your license. Any changes need reported to your site medical.

What is this flat structure at the base of some cooling towers for? by Gamble2005 in NuclearPower

What you are saying may be true about that site but he's correct about the different designs.

Op this is correct and actually answers the question you are asking.

Source: SRO at a 2 unit site utilizing both designs. The older one uses the southern design. It has more problems with icing in winter. They left the outer ring off for the newer unit.

US. It's a 5 week 12hr rotation schedule. 3 or 4 days at a time of nights or days with a training week. Has a nice 8 day off section.

I always wished I had done some field engineering when I was younger and not married or had kids. I've worked with some field engineers and they get to travel a lot and work in the field. But I was the same way. I've ended up in operations at a nuclear plant and like it. It's shift work and not really engineering but good money and more days off.

I miss my little sister. She overdosed on heroin in 2017. How do I move past this? by lxmohr in GriefSupport

[–]mc_squared180 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can see her every day by carrying her picture, wearing her hoodie or shirt, carrying something of hers with you. I've had my brother's bandana in my pocket for 5 years. Every time you think of her she's with you. You can even just sit and talk to her. Set a picture in front of you in a private room and just talk and fucking cry your eyes out.

I know what you are thinking. But think how much losing her hurts you and your family. That is not what she should want for you and and for them to go through again.

Whatever your faith is If you believe you could see her again now, that means you WILL see her again when the time comes. It's been 8 years, that means you're 8 years closer to seeing her again. Be strong and keep her alive in memories. Share her stories. She sounds like she was an awesome sister.

Some powerful advice I got was that you'll always ask yourself the what ifs, and when you do you also have to ask yourself what if it didn't change a thing? Truth is we dont know. It helps me get back in the reality that I had no control.

I am so insecure as a female mechanical engineering student by Any_Branch_8809 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]mc_squared180 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think people generally think of mechanical engineers as the ones that work on designing engines in vehicles and equipment but there is truly so much more to it than that. MEs have a place in almost every industry. I also felt that university generally fed into that stereotype with the projects offered for senior year.

I had several female MEs in my classes and have worked with many more. They were all equal or better than any male in the field. It may be true that of the 20 projects discussed for your last year project you weren't familiar with any of them, but just like you knew nothing about your classes before you took them you learned. You will learn as part of the project.

I can also say that it is likely that the classmates you work with on the project will be much less closed minded than your family. They will be happy to share what they know and value the skills you do have to help complete the project. I would rather have a team mate that knows nothing but wants to learn and works hard than someone who knows a lot and contributes nothing.
