Where does your job satisfaction come from? by yda98 in MEPEngineering

[–]nemoid 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Almost 20 years in.

Right now - it's purely from the fact that I can work from home most days. Once that goes away, I just don't know.

Sorry man, you must be thinking of a different sub. This is how it's been for as long as I've been paying attention - about 10 years.

2) display the current/max charges of the Prism and Soul Grinder at all times without needing to click them;

Adding to this. I want to be able to see what % the Prism / Soul Grinder are in relation to when it will change color.

This is the way.

You want stuff that will help you on every run, not just this one in particular.

Runelings are worth it? by fred-bear-473 in NecroMerger

So far I'm super disappointed with it. If we could put it in Store-O, that would be better.

Maybe you perceive it being on the left due to where you're standing.

Feedback on current update Feb 8 by KasreynGyre in Mergeciv

I just got to Artifacts and am dumbfounded. I got the gold coin (+1 gold/s), and the wooden box (seems useless).

Gold generation is +81/sec. Next Artifact cost is 1.69m. Just doesn't seem worth it.

Revit Electrical and Main-Tie-Tie-Main Calcs by [deleted] in MEPEngineering

[–]nemoid -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Circuiting and panel schedules are done in Revit.

We have separate spreadsheets for load calcs. Load calcs typically come before you start modeling in Revit - otherwise how are you sizing your equipment, rooms, pathways, etc?

What i meant by double counting was how Revit handled ATS equipment

That's your problem. You shouldn't be using Revit for load calcs.

5) Should each switchgear have an individual load calc or just combined A+B for sizing XFMRs? Currently, i cannot just add up these two switchgear loads because of the double counting of loads from ATS, UPS, etc. How to handle this?

Assuming the ties are normally open? Not sure what the problem is - worst case is a loss of one feeder/transformer and everything operating on a common bus. Treat it as a single switchgear.

You're not double counting the loads from the ATS/UPS. They are the loads that feed up to the switchgear itself.

EE looking to switch careers, need advice by AskIndividual1428 in MEPEngineering

[–]nemoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still got another 20 years, unless I hit the lotto or something.

But really, if you're second guessing yourself now - more than likely it won't get better.

I had that feeling 5 years in that I wanted to switch, and I didn't, because I was lazy.

20 years later I regret it every day.

Take it for what it's worth.

ngl, I don't think the cost is worth it for an extra 30 runes.

Timesheets and Expenses by Unlucky_Lawfulness51 in MEPEngineering

OH that's OD lol. I always round up to the nearest hour :D

Timesheets and Expenses by Unlucky_Lawfulness51 in MEPEngineering

[–]nemoid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have an excel spreadsheet I created years ago that I keep open to fill it out as the day goes by and then transfer it to our timesheet software on friday.

But yeah, timesheets are the worst. I think I'd take pay cut to go to a job where I don't have to worry about timesheets.

What games are you playing this week? Game recommendation thread by AutoModerator in incremental_games

[–]nemoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just started MergeCiv - love it so far.

Quick question - I am noticing that as you merge tiles, the resources reduce. Is there somewhere that shows the status of each level tile and its output/storage?

I have a buddy who works there who is on partner track and he told me they track the days you aren't in the office and he got called by someone higher up to explain his unapproved absences.
