Now that I have my newly minted PE license, I am finally feeling marketable enough to make the leap out of highway construction. I work an obscene number of hours from April to November. Frankly, 16 hour days and 2 am bridge pours are getting harder and harder as I age.
I came across one...
As much as I wanted to take tomorrow off, I decided to buckle down and actually work for a day this week, as the Suck really put the hurt on my productivity. Modest celebration tonight as a result. Salt and vinegar hot wings (the best) and a cold glass of water. The beer will have to wait.
I’m voting any day other than today. Not because I don’t want to know, but... I’ve resorted to making bets at work to pass the time and I’ve got lunch riding on it being any day, but today.
I wish mine had. Unfortunately (or fortunately?), there is a PM position coming open and our pool is a little shallow in terms of PEs. I get the feeling my application will be mandatory if I passed.
My boss keeps asking if I’ve got my results. I’ve already warned him that he will know when he either:
a.) Hears my celebration from three buildings
away, or
b.) receives an email asking to go home and sulk.
At what stage does, wake up in a cold sweat from a nightmare where you arrive at the test location and no one is there, occur? No, not the October test. I’m already having nightmares about April! December can’t come soon enough...
