The amount of times i do this, usually the 1* reviews are all "this replacement part didnt fit my [machine]" or something similar. Usually its just the end user admitting they ordered the wrong thing, and cant take acknowledge theyre the ones who made a mistake
We recently ran into a situation where we got an update to NX and the new version physically couldnt model a part we had designed. The part was very specifically designed around its aero features. Our CFD PhD said itd take him 3 months to determine the impact to the features.
I sat down with one of the other engineers, we ran through every scenario possible, ran it all through 1d flow solver models, and determined worst case scenario (which we were certain wasnt going to happen) was 7 degree F change to the metal temperature. When we're talking metal temps 1200F+, 7 is insignificant.
We came to that conclusion in 4 hours and told the team to keep going with what NX could do.
Got busted drinking a beer while canoeing. While doing my community service, the locals told us the bend in the river with the guy drinking at a picnic table was actually a cop. He cheers every boat going down the river and if you cheers back, he radios you description down river to his buddies and they pull you out of the river.
There was another group in our "substance abuse class" that said they were camping and lit a joint around the camp fire and the local police came out of the woods in tactical gear and night vision goggles to cite them.
I work in aerospace engineering and i hesitate to hire PhD. In my experience, PhD always want to find the best engineering solution and cant, dont, or wont bother to understand the business implications of budget and schedule. They simply cant say, "good enough," and move on. They always need 1 more study, or to so the 1 month model instead of the 1 day hand calc because it gives a more accurate answer, and theyre a pain in the ass to manage. Sometimes all management needs to understand is directional trends to make a decision
My college had a handful of restaurants that delivered via bicycle. They were always the fastest and got a ton of business because of it. Pretty sure they just went to the college cycling team/clubs to recruit becuase they were always on very nice bikes in the full spandex bike suits. They were awesome
Thats how they sell it. If you buy alcohol, its required to be bagged for some reason. So when you buy 1 drink from a gas station or a liquor store, the brown paper bag is required.
But as the other person said, it does technically cover the label, so it could be anything
The highest functioning time of my life i did something similar to this. I was getting my MBA while finishing my senior engineering project. My engineering team wanted to meet before they went to their internships, so we were getting together at 630 am. I also had night classes that started at 6pm.
Id meet with the engineers in the morning, then crank out all my engineering work, then go to sleep around 1-2 pm and sleep til 5pm, then head to classes, and do my MBA work until about 2am then sleep til 6am.
I wasnt working constantly, i had free time and play time, but sleeping 2x a day for ~4 hours at a time was AMAZING for me. I wish I could find a way to do that again
At work, our hot water went out for weeks on end. No one that could fix it seemed to give a shit. But our company is super high on "safety first" so I reported a safety concern that i over heard people weren't washing their hands because the water was too cold. And honestly, it was almost painful to wash your hands with how cold it was.
We got a written plan for fixing/replacing and what bathrooms to use if you needed warm water by the next morning. And they actually executed to the plan.
Took me a very long time to understand why my go to, Scooter, was being blocked... extra harsh filter catching "cooter" was the culprit. Only discovered because something just * the string so my name was S******
Im 38 and going in for my 3rd or 4th one next week. Obviously im high risk, but ive gotten to the point where ive got no shame and no fear of it anymore.
I cant help with fear of needles or general anesthesia, but the actual process is painless, and youll just be farting for a while after
Ive gotten over itnas best i can. The worst is when i cook something, and she decides thats not what she wants, so she cooks something else for herself.
But she also gets upset that she does most of the cooking. Like yeah no shit. I dont need praise from you for everything i do, but less negative reinforcement would go a long way.
Therapy is helping though. I can hear it in the way she talks to our kids about life and how to treat others. So the realization is coming through
My wife hates that she "always has to pick the restaurant," when we go out. I cant make her realize she shot down my first 3 suggestions before asking what she wanted. Yes you pick because everything i suggest you dont want tonight and ill eat everything.

All my schooling was is metric units, but my 15 year career in the USA has all been standard units
"They caused me financial harm!"
"Ok show us your financials so we can determine how much."
"Oh... uh... you wanna see my totally legit financials?? Uhhh nevermind i take it back."

I love so much of this. But im unfortunately priced out of that range. That stuff is so fun
Obvious brz was obvious
But for real... i miss my brz. Swapped out for dad mobile impreza 7 years ago and miss it every day
Have you never seen a painted ceiling before?
I painted my dining room ceiling blue a year ago and its awesome
Next Monday for me! Enjoy your cocktails!

You see, this used to be a whole building! But now its just the outer ring because the middle is actually a space colony!
