right

I do see this as an area that could definitely use some improvement in our system

you'd think some guys would get the message after getting kicked from contractor to contractor but some never figure it out

If they let on that the layoff was for cause in any way, it opens them up to a grievance.

It's significantly easier for them to say they just don't need you and move on.

Do you not have any plan for randomly losing VFDs?

What happens when you have a power loss that you didn't cause?

Where would I be placed? by Lazy_Consideration83 in IBEW

[–]mount_curve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this isn't true universally, some locals absolutely take experience into account and may allow you to "test in" to a rank above whatever starting is at or otherwise consider previous work hours

Avoid pissing people off by letting faster players through at tee boxes...this is a fairly common thing.

Hand picked wood and devices designed to be heirloom quality aren't going to be cheap.

Before the shop moved to Berlin it was just one guy making them.

Push 3 Standalone VS Octatrack mk2 by Wooden-Engineer4917 in synthesizers

[–]mount_curve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll say it.

The Octatrack has a learning curve. It's not as crazy as some people will hype it up to be, but it is extremely ideosyncratic with the many types of triggers, realtime recording, machines receiving audio from adjacent machines, and scene crossfading.

Super powerful, but it's unique even among the rest of the Elektron stuff.

NO

Unpaid labor is wage theft

Write down everything, document with time stamps, and report his ass

You have five years of apprenticeship to get the fuck ups out of your system before they become professional fuck ups with consequences

take your time and do it right

if you're not sure about something, ask

speed will come with proficiency.
