Boomer,

STFU

Whoops, posted this in the wrong thread. Sorry MLY.

I like pears tho...

this sounds like a pretty bad work environment.

mly sounds off too.

Lapka seems quite like a robot to me, so maybe its a good work environment.

Boting PS.

I used to work in an environment like this when I was doing project engineering. I had to charge every hour to a project, but it wasn't that stressful because I had 40-50% of the hours of each project budgeted to me since I was the lead engineer. I had to keep track of how much the other engineers were charging to my projects and I assigned work based on the amount of hours we had budgeted. For example, if they only gave me 10 hours for ME work, I would just do the vessel calcs or whatever myself instead of assigning it to an ME since I already had plenty of hours budgeted for myself. I did have to stress about the deadlines and budgets a lot, but I never had to explain the hours I was charging to any project as it was expected I would be using most of the hours.

It was something like this:
Project engineer: 40% hours
Designer: 30%
Process engineer: 10%
Structural/ME/Valves: 10%
Electrical: 10%

The percentages varied depending on the scope of the project, but the Project Engineer was always allotted the most.

Now I'm not doing anything even close to project engineering. I just collect/ review data and make decisions everyday, lead a bunch of pointless meetings,and do a **** ton of paperwork, mainly reports and procedures.

When I say my job is easy and boring, it's always in comparison to when I worked as a project engineer and was busy non stop, working insane hours, and unable to take a sick day or vacation because there was always a deadline that had to be met and everything fell on my shoulders. I got so used to being super efficient that my job now is just a piece of cake.

Bunt cake?

Baa!

Though many think sacrifice bunts are rarely theoretically correct in baseball, MLYLT sacrificing bundts would most likely be dietarily optimal.

More like sacrifice bunt cake, amirite?

Trying hard to picture "super efficient." Difficulty level: 9.

geez guys it was obviously a speech-to-text error. She did sacrifice the birthday bunt cake, though. #RIP

Any update on Tyler? He hasn't been on in almost a month.

Baa!!

He aint comin back, his performance itt has been pathetic

What a joke...

And that was the job where you were let go. Good thing you found an easier job.

Tx. I understand it better now.

I've never been "let go". I left that job for a significant pay raise and promotion to Project Manager with a startup company that went under a few months after I started.

My mistake. I think I may have confused you with someone else then. I laughed at your edit.

bump

let's do this!

Llllllets get ready to jiggllllllllllllllllllllle!...

Now noone gets my joke
