a plot plan? but that's not technically a survey.

Three kids is harder than four. I have confirmed this with with six sets of couple. Just stay at two, or go to four. Three is tough.

Planning is key. I spent about a year making the decision, meeting with two attorneys that did the same thing (finance and legal professional service organizations are fairly similar to engineers), planning, setting up the spreadsheets, design software, details, templates, proposals, researching...

Structural engineering.. finally quit the mid-size firm (30 employees) that does civil, environmental, structural and surveying where I worked for over 6 years.

Correct, no cable. Ditched that a couple years ago.

A recruiter reached out to me through LinkedIn about Hurricane Inspections for the next few months. If I weren't busy I would take it. But since I am busy, it would be hard to leave the Mrs for a week with 4 kids under 7 for a week at a time. Although that would be a nice paid vacation.

I am a member and used the tool to compare my salary to other civil engineers. But after you run the search tool twice you have to pay extra. Or you can pay $400 for the bundle. This will work for you since you're civil, but it's not for all engineers...

I am resurrecting this thread, as I just opened my own business three months ago.

I just hired my first employee this morning. No recruiter involved.

I knew I forgot something. Good thing my cat is outside. He usually gets his own breakfast.

I made BACON and waffles for breakfast this morning. It's worth it being late for work.

You are assuming they went to class and/or paid attention.

This is what I was going to write.

We have to submit the current certificate as part of the Request For Qualification bids for municipal contracts. The paperless route would not be a big deal since we can prnt them ourselves anyway.

The wife may have been affected, I was not. But she signed us both up for the monitoring just in case.

Sounds like you need to figure out your careers goals and then determine the steps needed to get there. If you enjoy software then a PE may not be critical to your immediate success. There are tons of certifications you can obtain with more impact. A PE can be a goal, but generally there is a...

I firmly believe everything happens for a reason. Unfortunately I may not agree with the reason in the short term, long term or cosmic relativity (my personal good or someone else's good farther down the line.) RG staying with a great job may prevent someone else having that same opportunity. Or...

I would think an attorney would need to review your particular confidentiality agreement and provide advise based on case law in similar situations. Depending on the wording you may need to remove all descriptive information from the project files. Most agreements are more in line with existing...

Passed at 33. Three kids (5, 3, 1yo) and a pregnant wife. She forced me to study whenever I wanted to take a break. Failing the PE was not an option after I had failed the SE twice. Total study time for both tests was about 900 hours over three years, but the SE time really prepared me for the...
