    Mechanical Guys.....how do you think you did?

    Passed in April, you guys enjoy the break that you have now. It took me three times and one of the worst parts about the test is the final three weeks that you are waiting for your score. So if you think you will forget the information, you may want to keep it fresh, otherwise take off until...

    THIS IS IT!!! (not the michael jackson movie)

    I thought I was brain dead when I came out of there, but decided to kill anything else that was still there in the following hours.

    A Change in Stradegy?!?!?!

    I ranked them on my third try and it worked for me. If I could get it immediately I did it. If I knew how to do it but would have to dig for formulas, it would get a 1. If I thought it was reasonable for me to be able to figure it out, it received a 2. If I thought that it was batsh!t crazy...

    MD to fluids/Thermo or HVAC

    I did the opposite, I went from fluids and Thermo, to MD and I passed on my third try. My education and teacher were a whole lot more thorough with MD than they were in the Thermo section though.

    Salary Raise for Getting PE License

    A little better than 7.5% raise and 400 dollar per quarter bonus. Not bad considering that we have already downsized about 30% thus far this year.

    What are you eating?

    I hate to tease, but this past year I actually ate so much crawfish, I did not want any at the end of the season. Well offshore fishing this weekend, probably going to cook up some amberjack, snapper, fresh Tuna or Ling next week. I should be eating fish for a while to come.

    What are you eating?

    You guys really need a lesson on cooking? Talk to a Cajun from Louisiana. Grew up around food and my mom owns a restaurant. I love to cook but I am not too good at sizing my portions, so there is always tons of left overs.

    Are engineers as boring as some think?

    I was the best man at a wedding in May. On the way to the rehearsal, myself and a couple of the groomsmen (2 more engineers and an inventor) decided to partake in a good bit of Miller Lite. On the way back to the hotel, we decided that since we all had been drinking it would not be fair for...

    HAND SCORING

    Not worth it, I had 65% total correct last year, (I went over my percentages with someone from ELSES). They told me that they just pass it through again and he said if you are this close you will get it next time. And I did. I know it sucks but you just have to persevere and get at it again...
