Check the corps of engineers on usajobs.gov .

Give me the announcement number and I'll take a look at it. ...Maybe it's an area office or project office and not the District office.

It also doesn't hurt to use some sales skills to develop or work relationships with people that already work for the gov. They can give you advice and also alert you to upcoming positions that aren't yet posted on the net. At one time I was told that the Army/COE was not required to post jobs...

I'm a big time coffee drinker and I had the same concerns when I took the PE. About a week before the test I bought some No Doz pills and took the prescribed amount early in the morning to see what the effects would be. Then I proceeded to work some problems throughout the morning as if I was...

OK...I'm trying a different hosting site. Let me know if you can see this one:

Hmm...I posted it on Google's photo gallery. The gov. won't allow photobucket photos. Got any other ideas?

Did it not show up? ...I can see it fine on my computer.

Be careful when you put revision clouds on your drawings!

I got your wish. I got a large high profile project after getting the PE, but no extra pay (unless you count the new $18.00 cubicle name plate). If I'm not going to get the extra pay, screw the extra work and responsibility. I'm my opinion, you need to TAKE ADVANTAGE of this time. The extra...

Rob, several years ago when I failed the Water Resources exam, my scores where very close to yours. Like you, I also scored pretty good on the Geotech and Structural stuff. Needless to say, the next time (two years later btw) I took the Geotech test and passed. You should consider the same. DM

[in a Bevis voice] ...he almost said "Penis". [/in a Bevis voice] :D

It was about this time last year that I started getting organized and started studying for the upcoming test in April. NOT THIS YEAR!!!!! Signed, DKent, P.E. :multiplespotting: :bananalama: :party-smiley-048: :multiplespotting:

I got a dragon tat on my left chest years ago. When the kids started coming I decided to get rid of it (having one kinda says it's OK for them to get one). I've been through about 5 (or 6) laser sessions. ...Talk about pain. The laser is much worse than getting the tat .....and getting the...

I quote from civilsid: "I had one guy tell me right to my face that he felt that I was not qualified to be an engineer." Another quote from Luis: "The same thing happened to me. The guy just told me on my face: I am no signing your paper work. I don't know your engineering work." Lack of a...

Regarding the "girly-man" comments. Just because YOU think it's a joke, does not mean that it's a joke to the person that is being called the name. It is HARRASSMENT. No matter what you say or how you say it, if the person on the receiving end perceives it as harrassment, it's harrassment...

If I didn't know you or your quality of work I wouldn't sign your papers either! Why do you think the Boards require the references in the first place? If the Board wanted a meaningless signature, they would have said to go out on the street and get one from the next guy that walks by. Go...

Nope, and my name isn't John B Doe either. :)

Well, my do-it-yourself stamp was accepted:

FWIW, age discrimination happens to men also. I'm 35 but I look like I'm in my 20's. I've had many comments about my youth. Youth is perceived as being inexperienced and this REALLY pisses me off. I recently lost a promotion to a job that I had been performing for over a year in addition to...
