September 30, 20195 yr Alright H0p, I've got a few $$$ in my pocket that Im itching to spend on a moped/scooter. Plans are to use it around work (1200 acre campus) and for general fun. Any ideas on what to buy? Electric, Ruckus, Vespa, etc....
September 30, 20195 yr If you are truly where you are i would build an overpowered Ebike. Cyclone, Bafang BBSHD are the budget friendlier choices for over volting
September 30, 20195 yr @///M5 and anyone else; I'm finishing my degree and December, and I feel like there is so much more to learn about project management. I'm debating on where to be looking to start off. Any suggestions on better companies? J
October 1, 20195 yr There are all sorts of lists of good companies to work for...but as a first shot, I'd look for something you are interested in. WAY easier to plop in all serious when you care to begin with.
October 1, 20195 yr In FL I can't name too many...but that is because the industries I play in aren't there.

October 1, 20195 yr I HATE driving! Left yesterday for Lyons NY. Got through Ohio and PA trouble free. As soon as we hit NY, total shitstorm of traffic. Lasted 2 hours on I90. Got done today and we were supposed to go to Niagara Falls tomorrow when the boss changes his mind. He wants to drive to fucking Cleveland and then on t o two other jobs tomorrow since they're, "on the way home." WTF?!

WAY easier to plop in all serious when you care to begin with. I'd like being involved with music. Either concerts or instrument companies like Gibson, Fender, Orange Amps, etc. Alcohol, automotive, marijuana (medicinal or recreational), heavy equipment would be of interest as well.

The beaches, a solid VA for health care, lots of concerts to cover, and having pro football and hockey are great pluses. Yet I have not purchased a home here. I am not committed to staying here instead of taking the right career. I'd like to buy a home once I am working for the right company. J

Ticks all those boxes.
October 2, 20195 yr @Aaron Clinton How's the BOINC going? I forgot how much a space heater that thing is. The basement is a solid 10 degrees warmer In the house from all the crunching. Lol
October 2, 20195 yr J - peak around you for companies. See if any are matches. If you are happy where you are that is somewhat the choice. Regrettably not my neck of the woods to know a ton about. As for Linkedin, I look at content, details, references, anything that shows you are a company man and that your job isn't secondary to your life.
October 2, 20195 yr https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kxcwgtaqAc I need to hurry up and get my garage built.

I have another machine I have not had a moment at home where I am not totally spent, to get it set up yet that would be a huge help.

Unfortunately the ownership route is much more difficult as a vast majority fail. I've tended bar, and while it's fun I don't have a high tolerance for dumb drunks. Hence wanting to look more at the corporate level. J

While the location is somewhat the choice, it's not everything. One of the biggest 'well fuck' moments I have had is not moving to Germany back in 2008 when I had the chance, simply because I would have been headed right back to Iraq. Had I taken that, instead of fearing that things would have been vastly different. Good or bad....who knows. That's why I am open to relocating; I can be happy anywhere and make things work one way or another. I apologize for possibly not following here, but am I correct in assuming "your job isn't secondary to your life" means that you keep a healthy work/life balance? That you have other enjoyment besides working just to pay the mortgage? J
