    Saw this over the weekend.  Very good movie - much better than I expected from the previews.

    Movie thread

    Bad Boys for Life - if you're a fan of the first two movies and know what to expect going in then you'll like it.  Other than the nostalgia the movie was pretty terrible.  Was really surprised to see quite a few parents bring their 8 - 10 year olds to the movie.

    Wife is looking forward to it, me not so much. Mini-Shush and I are looking forward to the new Scooby movie.

    Movie thread

    Took mini-Shush to see Sonic - holy crap that movie was horrible.  Most of the jokes fell flat, the product placement was overly in your face, and the lead guy/gal might as well have been cardboard cutouts.  The "saving grace" was Jim Carrey's usually over the top performance which has gotten...

    Trying to get boss to allow the same study opportunities as coworker

    Couple items: 1. Regarding test materials and prep courses, the policy for reimbursement should be clearly defined in your company's policy for tuition reimbursement.  If not, you should have this in writing before undertaking any costs.  Most places I've worked for you paid all costs up front...

    HVAC or TFS exam?

    HVAC or TFS exam?

    It is my understanding effective April 2020 that the "general" morning portion of the exam will be replaced by a discipline specific morning session so folks taking TFS will be tested on that both in the morning and afternoon with little if any overlap in the other areas.  The latest exam...

    HVAC or TFS exam?

    On the other hand, I have never personally understood the desire to take the exam in an area outside of your practice solely for the sake of passing.  I work primarily TFS so that's what I took.  If my daily job was MDM or HVAC I would take either of those disciplines.  While I understand our PE...

    Last thing watched on netflix / Amazon..................

    Finished Breaking Bad.  The rave reviews are thoroughly justified.  It's one of the very few shows where the writing/acting stayed strong through all the seasons and the finale was awesome yet completely logical.

    Job Gripes

    It is not unusual for bosses to not know right away.  Previous company I worked for had down time where you were basically sitting there reading standards because there wasn't a chargeable job order for you to work on.
