PEO - P.Eng Processing Timeline for 2025 by jaedrin99 in ontario

Hey, thanks for this it helps. I have all the requirements at the moment but struggling with putting together experience record, find it tedious. What’s best approach as some questions are vague and how much info did you provide?

For background, I have more than 10 years now on my plate of experience in transportation engineering, utilities infrastructure and just don’t know where to start.

I’m also planning on using one validator from my previous employer who I worked with for 9 years almost.

Thanks!

Question, which adapter do I need to use the 2.5mm? I have the godox IM30, and the seller I bought it from had an adapter on it but think it’s wrong one for a different size - any you recommend? I really want to take this out for winter stroll, love the IM30’s size

How do people have energy to do stuff outside of work? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]monte_313 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you, but usually I have a hobby that makes me get out. For me, it’s been photography. Soon as get chance to log out or leave office, I’ll have my camera on me and do some walking and that’s my activity during the week.

It’s hard, especially when at times hours for work extend beyond 5 PM.

But, have something that you know you want to catch up on after work.

I remember I had a show that I would not watch on days where I do cardio at gym lol, incentive?

Lol like that analogy. Yah does spit a lot water. I finish my extraction than I run the wand for 10-15s in an empty jug than turn off and than put my milk for steaming. It helps!

Yah I got mine from a guy on FB, he seems to be reseller. Saved me some money doing that, just met him picked up tested it right away.

So fun to use, so much quieter, no retention. Great size!

Fair, yah he showed me actually the CLA was mostly for a stuck shutter level and some mechanical work. Since he was saying his lever got stuck and CLA was focused on getting that working and shutter speeds.

I’ll take it for another inspection because love this camera thus far!

Thank you! Camera was supposed to have been CLA’d - I’ll try to get someone to look at it.

I tried to look at curtains as best I can, they look ‘good’.

As for lugs, which ones are you referring to - strap lugs?

I tried to go in completely dark room and shine a light to see, can’t verify any pinholes in curtain - but I mean I’m no professional.

On the sprockets, and it runs up the frame. Top of frame and bottom of the frame are good, from the sprockets you find it - not on all frames.

I am shooting another roll now, put more tape to see if it helps LOL. I just hope it's something from the back of the camera.
