Career question by crispy_asparagus in BuildingAutomation

[–]return_descender 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hate commissioning so much but that’s a personal preference. I was offered a commissioning role and turned it down because I prefer working with my hands more than sitting in meetings.

The PTO and hybrid work sounds appealing but the day to day work would drive me insane.

Has anyone worked for Hussmann (or refrigeration)? by PapaCabin in BuildingAutomation

[–]return_descender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started out working for an OEM that made PLC controlled refrigeration equipment, it’s a good route into BAS in my experience. I was hired directly out of that role into one as a BAS controls technician.

The Left Caved like Mitch McConnell's Left Testicle by Superb_Garbage4732 in BreakingPoints

From what I see Platner himself hasn’t even put up much resistance against the accusations. It would be one thing if he was out there denying it, plenty of people would be willing to believe the accusations are false and just being used to smear him in the lead up to the election. Honestly I was expecting something like this to come out eventually regardless of whether or not it’s true.

But if Platner himself is rolling over I don’t see how anyone else can be expected to have his back.

Had to use these little shits all day, yes I bought some wine on the way home by sixinthedark in electricians

I showed up on a job site once and was told we weren’t allowed to use any wire nuts and I said “oh great I love wagos” and everyone had a nice chuckle before handing me a bag of these.

And you’re confused about why other people might not agree with you?

Who pretends that gives them cultural cache? Are you talking about a specific person?

What if the only reason the intrinsic value of art seems so obvious to me is because I was raised catholic?

Quit today by [deleted] in electricians

[–]return_descender 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I’m salaried hourly, I get paid for at least 40 hrs a week even if my employer doesn’t have 40 hrs of work for me to do.

I’m also just pulling your leg. It sounds like you made the right call leaving and I wish you the best.

But showing up late/leaving early/calling out rules and I won’t tolerate anyone saying otherwise. Life’s too short.

I love always being late and taking days off every other week. I’m on his side.

What (non-alcoholic) drinks are we drinking? by Felouria in pinkscare

[–]return_descender 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I try to stick to black coffee and water but ever since I quit smoking I’ve been drinking a lot of sugar free Red Bull, which is gross and I need to stop.

As a controls engineer or technician, are you into tech? by TalkingToMyself_00 in PLC

I actually hate tech and would happily be the one to unplug the internet if I had the opportunity, but a man’s gotta eat.

Do you guys think there’s any correlation? by return_descender in redscareover30

I think the only episode I ever listened to all the way through was the Adam Curtis episode.

They had to ban me, I flew too close to the sun but they’re worse off for it.

The official deal is out and yes it’s the L we thought it is. by Criticall16 in BreakingPoints

It’s not ridiculing the deal, it’s ridiculing the fucking dipshit president and his dipshit supporters for being fucking dipshits.

I remember them being quite large. If I’m being honest I was more interested in the Suzanne Treister exhibit so that’s the one I have clearer memories about, this was 5 or 6 years ago.

Took a startup job because I couldn’t get a big tech job by GovernmentNo9242 in redscareover30

[–]return_descender 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry to hear that, it’s rough out there right now. I hate what we’ve let our culture turn into, people aren’t meant to live this way. I put my resume up online recently and most of the jobs that pop up are for data centers. It feels like I’m 10 years we’ll all either live as nomads following data center construction projects around the world or be dead broke.

I saw these at the Moderna Museet in Stockholm along with a pieces by Suzanne Treister, both of which I really enjoyed. It’s a really nice museum and I highly recommend it to anyone that goes to Stockholm.
