I was wondering if anyone else here was in the PPI class? I found it very helpful, we will see soon enough how helpful it was!

don't they always release results on Fridays? 

We have done this for many buildings in our county determined to be in the "flood zone". FEMA takes forever to go through the process and uses any excuse to send back forms as not correct... it took nearly 5 months to get the last one adjusted.

I always say to the people that work for me, The time to worry is before you act not after. When you act your decision has been made and the result is set. So at this point its already decided no reason to worry it will not change a thing!

I bet a FOIA would not be responded to until after the NEXT exam results were released! 

If you did fail just wait for the dreams about it not being true! those are worse...

What color is it if you own a bunch fire arms?  I have that many and at least 5000 rounds for each... I love to shoot, I do it all the time!

I love this clip... seems appropriate as well! (grabbed this from another thread)

slide-rules were not allowed in the room!

the fitbit can theoretically be used to sneak questions out. The telemetry that is used to count steps could be used to create a pattern that can be turned into words after the test. I doubt there are many people out there smart enough to do this, but its possible!

I work for a County Engineers office, I will take over as the County Engineer when I have my license. I negotiated and had them sign my contract beforehand so it takes effect as soon as I have the license. One of the best features of this field is the retirement program, once my years of service...

I am a Civil and when I pass (hopefully I did this round) I will instantly get a 25% raise and scheduled raises the next 3 years... Though I spent a mountain of money on references and review courses it does not scratch what the projected monetary benefit of passing will be!

Sounds like to me he didnt really plan on staying anyway and was going to do whatever he wanted. The desperation of not being repaired often makes people do stupid things!

the test for re-takers and first time takers is the same, it is an issue of knowing the topic.... looks like people know it or dont without much middle ground!

I have a pre-signed contract that goes into effect as soon as I receive my license. I recently talked to a couple engineers that said they got nothing immediately after getting their PE but were able to advance faster. I guess call me greedy I wanted Both advancement and pay!

I was just wondering how many people here took the Civil Transportation afternoon exam.  What do you all do for a living? I am the assistant County Engineer and I will assume the County Engineer position as soon as I have my license ( I have a person in a neighboring county Oversee my work for...
