    NASA Planetary Protection Officer

    Maybe Star Wars and Men In Black movies are actual documentaries?

    NASA Planetary Protection Officer

    I think they need to hire all of us.  We can come up with some cool places to have offices and travel to protect the planet.

    NASA Planetary Protection Officer

    NASA has a new position open to protect the planet from aliens.  The sallary is $187,000 which seems low given the responsibility.

    They took the article down.  LOL

    Is Star Wars Real?

    This paper was totally bogus, and written by a scientist that was getting fedup with multiple respictable journals publishing bad papers.  He submitted this paper to 4 medical journals, and 3 of them published it.  One rejected it.  Two of the three have removed it from their website. Then...

    Is Star Wars Real?

    Look at what I found in the American Research Journal of Biosciences: https://arjonline.org/uploads/articleInPress/2/70118ARJB2017005.pdf

    Fast Job Hunt

    I start on Monday.  Going through benefits, the difference in insurance alone is a 10K bump in cash plus free life insurance.  It is nice to work for a real company that is run like a business.

    Fast Job Hunt

    I got the offer letter from my previous employer for a Sr. Engineer position with a slight raise.  So less responsibility and headaches for more money.  Actually being in a good company as a manager would be less headaches than anything in a dysfunctional company.

    Fast Job Hunt

    P.S.  We would not mind a move to Colorado if we can find something in the Colorado Springs, or Denver/Boulder/Golden area.  My biosystems engineering would go great in beer production.

    Fast Job Hunt

    Some of the companies are hiring back slowly while the service companies have been making cuts.  We will see what happens.  I did have a good call from HR of my former employer.  Hopefully something there works out.  I have also been trying to work something into the pipeline companies.  One of...

    Fast Job Hunt

    Still waiting on a call.  Yes about the Saudi Arabian princes.  I used to have a lower ranked prince reporting to me for a year when I was at TDW.  He once went on a long rant how the higher level princes with all of the $$$ are basically drug addicts flying drugs, and lots of crazy stuff.  It...

    Fast Job Hunt

    I still haven't heard back from the recruiter.  Hopefully I hear something today.  I am also networking into Williams Pipeline, and trying other places.

    Fast Job Hunt

    After talking to some previous direct reports who left my company I got laid off from last year, I called my old boss who was forced to lay me off from corporate.  He is an old school guy that worked his way up to a Senior Manager the hard way without college.  He was in tears when he laid me...

    Fast Job Hunt

    Well, I was let go today.  Sales have been anemic for the year after a record last year. Hopefully I can find something fast in the Tulsa area.

    How do you determine speed limits on county roads?

    I would petition the city to change the officers title to Roadway Tax Collector, and have a wimpy looking uniform for them.  Change the definition from traffic fines to traffic tax.  Then only allow Roadway Tax Collectors enforce traffic laws.  If you want to speed, you can pay the speeding tax...

    Mosul Dam

    We could really fix it up good if they add our composite system.  We have done subsea projects and structural projects, just not a dam yet.   www.cittech.com  Glad you are back.

    Coach Passed Away on Saturday

    I remember going down a few years after he retired for an alumni game, and the new coach was complaining about being sued by two pitchers for not giving them enough time on the mound.  Their stats were awful.  Coach Allen would have ran them off, and not put up with them. I have been busy over...

    Coach Passed Away on Saturday

    My college baseball coach passed away on Saturday which made for a rough weekend after finding out.  Before that, I put a WC title on our Golden Retriever, then we hit Silver Dollar City on Sunday. The coach was old school with pushing us on and off the field.  Every morning started at 6am with...

    Mosul Dam

    I have another idea.  Lets wrap the entire structure in carbon fiber composite, and charge the Iraq people for the work? When do you leave?
