Member of Parliament Sara Cunial tells the truth about Bill Gates and what he represents.  Gates is scum of course.  Why? Because he is a eugenicist and a globalist.  He favors global government, not sovereignty and also believes the world population must be forcibly reduced.  Unfortunately too...

I have had a recurring raccoon problem for years.  They **** on the roof, get inside the chimney despite a chimney cap weighed down by five bricks, tear up shingles around vents, etc.  How do I get rid of them permanently?  I am no longer interested in just killing them, I now want to inflict...

Does anyone remember a time when someone in engineering was considered to have status in the same way a lawyer or a doctor was considered?  Looking back on that now I am LMAO at people who would think such a thing to be true.  Transport drivers and heavy equipment operators can and do make more...

So who should be the favorite to win the next Super Bowl?  The smart money is on the New England Patriots.  Not just for 2019, but for 2020, 2021, 2022......and on until Bill Belichick retires.  No matter who the QB is or any other position, the system in place is what wins and they always seem...

So far Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman have been charged among others for paying bribes and getting their kids' entrance scores "fixed" so they can get into USC.  Are these people for real?  Are they not aware that simply getting admitted into a university like Southern California is no...

If everyone in your department is issued business cards except you. If there is an assigned parking spot for each department employee except you. When you go into a favorite after work pub and recognize several management people there and they stop talking when they see you. If your manager...

What would you do if your engineering career flamed out whether at age 25, 40 or 55?  Do you have a back-up plan on how you would make a living if you could not continue as an engineer?   

The recent news of the 30 year old fellow who has been ordered by a judge to move from his parents' house shows just how serious a problem this has become.  At what age should adults be required to get their own place to live and stop annoying the parents?  

Does anyone remember the statements made by high school guidance counselors and university administrators about the glories of enrolling in engineering?  Such lines as "you'll always be in demand" and " a bachelors degree in engineering gives the highest starting salary of any bachelors degree."...

http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2011/09/08/am...c1_lnk2%7C93845 What's happening? This is like gravity failing. Weren't we all taught early in life that the U.S. was the source of all opportunity and that anyone who moved out of the U.S. for work must be crazy? Certainly these people must not...

Dilbert's Salary Theorem Dilbert's "Salary Theorem" states that "Engineers and scientists can never earn as much as business executives, sales people, accountants and especially liberal arts majors." This theorem can now be supported by a mathematical equation based on the following two well...

Between outsourcing and off-shoring of many engineering functions, stagnant pay, decline of manufacturing in North America, poor opportunities for advancement, rapid obsolescence, hyper-extreme competition and rampant age discrimination, who would want their kids to waste four years on an...

Peter Yastrow, market strategist for Yastrow Origer has told CNBC that we are "on the verge of a great, great depression." Certainly seems possible, given the economic signs. With interest rates so low for so long now, we should be experiencing the greatest economic expansion since the end of...

I am seeing a growing trend where I am located. Companies are hiring technologists from two year programs in place of engineers from four year programs for many positions. They aren't doing it for cost savings so much because technologists pay has increased faster than engineers pay...

Yesterday two dogs were electrocuted and a third was critically injured by stray currents coming out of a sidewalk in Toronto. It was determined that an insulating cap failed on a streetcar span wire which supports the overhead power lines. The span wire was inadvertently touching a newly...

Pirates from Somalia recently shot four Americans to death aboard their yacht, have now captured a Danish family and may do the same. This piracy has been going on for years and seems to be tolerated. Where are the leaders with the guts to take decisive, permanent action against this? I think...

Hawaii, a great place to relax, unwind, enjoy the beaches and the sights. Also a great place for lots of engineering jobs on Oahu, including civil/structural, mechanical, electrical and software. The only catch is you have to be a resident before you apply for any of them. That's right, it's...

By far the easiest way to obtain a professional engineer license is to be licensed by a Canadian province. All long as your engineering curriculum is from an accredited university, the only exam you have to take is a four hour law and ethics exam that is given by each province and when you pass...

I am now 54, and have not worked in an engineering position for 15 months, other than a bit of contract work (ironically at the same place where I was let go). I am considering a position coming up in January in logistics overseas and would invite comments as to what other careers ex-engineers...
