I thought this was for red wine and blood cells and stuff.... my jim beam kept me company plenty of nights while my hubby was deployed, I think I'm healthier because it washes away the worries, but then this is a statement made after three of them so who knows... (today was my last day at work before the move, I'm unemployed and deserve to wallow in it)
Thats just it, i drink wine on occasion w/ dinner or beer or even at cocktail hour, but never alter my bourbon nightcaps so my two-adays are . . .well. . - welcome to the club (no work). I'll be having that triple E. W. shortly and clink my glass in a southerly direction. At least you got something lined up post-move, right?
Check the requirements on experience. I know when I was in the application process and trying to qualify my experience, NC regs said that experience had to be "continuous and progressive". I had a gap when I was unemployed due to layoff that I had to explain. I'm not sure what happens if you don't have an acceptable reason for not working.
See thats what i'm sweating over, but my reason is iron-clad: there ain't no freakin work in Mich in my fields of experience! Hopefully if my sizable gap comes up in any interviews (if they ever happen), they'll be on the same page of knowing how bad the civil & surveying industries are in MI. Right now, things are ok living on spouse's income, plus w/ two bambinos, it makes sense right now to not sweat it and be the stay at home daddy, and gear up for the October FE. Maybe by then work will be back around in my neck of woods, but w/ spouse having a kick-@ss job, were certainly not looking at relocating. I'll be sweating over ensuring i get the requisite 4 yrs exp (don't know how much i can count pre-degree)
Hey, engineergurl, I'm very thankful for what your husband is doing for us and I appreciate your support of him. I know how hard it is for couples to relocate. We've never had to do it. Good luck in the job hunt when you get there.
yeah i though this to be true, but had a PE i worked w/ tell me to petition the board (can't hurt to try); this wasn't summer work or internships, this was actual, real work, at technician level anyways (pre EIT of course, so i'm prob f#cked) - For PS, they do consider prior exp on a case by case basis - work essentially has to be at least at level that a 4yr grad would come in at. There is some wiggle room with that board, but again, i still can't find work!!! :brickwall:
Don't knock a classic!
Aaaahh! I was born in Wilmington, DE. Lived there til I was 6. So that explains the allegience to Pabst. I think he also used to drink Ballentine. And Schlitz.
