Hey guys, I'm getting ready to take the FE exam. Has anyone here taken the new computer based test? If so, what (if any) prep books did you use? Based on customer reviews I'm reading for various books on amazon and whatnot, the "old" prep books don't go into enough detail because the new test is...
"I do not get a feel for how a footing holds up a wall by hauling concrete bags to the mixer"
It's funny that you should mention that exact scenario mcgyver..
"I used something called "No Doz""
You should see the kind of stimulants available now. Pfizer ought to just drop the charade and come out publicly as a cartel

The amount of money it would take for me to consistently operate on a...
I really need to get another job first. To do so, I need to get my resume in order. Would it be absurd to post it on career forums (or even here perhaps) for some reviews? After scrubbing the personal data of course. At this point I'd even pay for a solid review [thumbsup]
Edit: nevermind, just...
"Three weeks later I was told I was going out of the country to do another bad assignment where I knew they'd strand me again. I calmly & with much diplomacy walked out two days later. I was delivered into a very nice new gig shortly thereafter."
I bet walking out of there felt great. The...
Hey guys, I graduated (BSME) this spring and now I'm trying to put a plan together. I got a job offer right off the bat: a position working with insulation and refractory material, primarily in and around large power plant boilers. It wasn't my ideal first choice but my resume wasn't too hot as...
