Sorry, but are you two both talking about scope-creep from the client making more work which wasn't initially defined, or are you talking about something that legitimately wasn't seen at the beginnig of the job which the contractor just needs to deal with and not bother with readjusting the...

For me, as long as I was moving, it was tolerable. I wore a Shoei X11, which vented pretty well, and when I was on the street just light gloves and a joe rocket "Phoenix" jacket which also vented really well. Stopped at redlights was really rough, and you have to make sure you drink a lot...

thx for the feeback dexman! actually, the cost of the MBA is one of the reason that i'm pursuing it. the company i currently work at pays for 75% of all tuition and books, so it's not actually that expensive for me.... i figure i might as well take advantage and get as much education as i can.

What skills (outside of your engineering skills) would you say have been instrumental in your success? What do you wish you knew more about? i.e. better finance/accounting, more advertising, etc. The reason I ask is I'm getting ready for an MBA, and I'd like your input.

SMILE!!!

Van deLay was always my favorite arch.

Used to, ended up in the hospital a few times, taking a break. Hopefully will get back on one of these days. In college rode every day, even when it was 115deg out. 40k miles in two years on my R1, and about 10 track days. All of mine were performance bikes though. RC51, R1, CBR600...

Here's the flaw in your (and most of America's) logic. THere is no 100% sure-fire way. All that there is, however, are reactive changes. "Oh! They tried to use liquid explosives, quick, ban liquids!" "Oh! He tried to use a shoe bomb, quick, search shoes!" Explosive swabs aren't 100% by any...

How about intelligent screening policies like Israel? Ask good questions to people who are likely to cause problems, and actually keep people off planes who have gone to Yemen and studied at schools which are known to teach violence? Better xrays, better searching, no hands in your laps...

didn't see this before. joined.

I took the lighting portion only from the standard handbook. IMHO, I think the Camara and NCEES practice exam were the most helpful books. Here's a list of stuff I used to prepare for the exam, use it at your own peril. :screwloose: I took most of it from threads here on EB, started...

all sold. mods feel free to delete.

all sold this weekend, during the holidays, sorry sir. good luck on your exam.

good to hear man!

Rand paid out of her own pocket for the extra pages of Galt's speech and some other portions. The original publisher wanted to trim it. I liked her books, even if they are verbose.

I've read Without Remorse 6 times.

I've already lost mine. I lose more pencils than anyone.

Them electrons have to travel a lot farther to get to you.

KEG, your books had good luck for me on the exam.... I hope they also have good luck in the pay department! 10k would be amazing. There'd be an SRT10 in the garage next to the Z06. ;)

If there's anyway you can meet him in person (just stopping by the office to say hello to your friend, whatever excuse you can make), I think you'll have a lot higher chances. People are less apt to just brush you off in person than they are over the phone. However it might be seen as...
