I certainly ask a doctor what the medication is, what symptoms it treats, what symptoms may appear as a result of taking the medicine, etc.
If the doctor is unable or not willing to answer the questions I'll pay my co-pay walk out the door and find a more open doctor. It's my responsibility to...
Looks to me like a normally open valve on a pressure relief setup. If your schematics are anything like what I'm accustomed to seeing then there should be a BOM or notes somewhere on the page or another page as reference.
Have you done some market research to see what the earning curve is for the positions you have applied for? It wouldn't hurt to take a look and see where you would be willing to land on the curve. Especially if these new positions are in different industries than what you are currently in.
I'm also on board with using Outlook to track my tasks. It's nice for keeping me on track with designs, and for higher priority or visibility projects I can set it up to automatically update my project lead for the mandatory status reports associated with hot projects.
I agree with Koach, what you are looking for is going to be industry specific and still vary from company to company as to what the best practices and procedures are for tracking work. A system like this, from what I've seen in my limited experience, pops up as a way to reduce accidents on the...
I would think to find what you are looking for you may want to run a search for people with similar career paths or roles on a professional organization you are part of. Maybe ASME, AIAA, LinkedIN or something of the sort, and that's assuming there aren't more senior individuals to discuss...
What the other two said. Two column table with two part numbers and dimensions for dimension A on your drawing or two separate drawings that only differ by one dimension. Either way it's definitely two part numbers if you go by the fit, form, or function rule.
That will all depend on how you answer an interviewer's question of why you left your first job in such a short period of time. If you can sell yourself well then it isn't really going to matter.
The better thing to ask yourself before taking the position is what experience and skills can you...
You may contact Parker O-Rings. I can't think of the name of the seal to save my life right now, but a few years back we used them in tools that had worn O-ring grooves and they solved our issues on tools pressure up to 30ksi. Worst case you can do like our technicians did and wrap the grove...
Hello Creo community,
I am attempting to change the cross hatching of components in an assembly drawing in Creo 2.0. When I select the cross hatching menu and try to change the cross hatching it changes all components. Can anyone help with a work around to this issue? Do I need to go back into...
As big as the area is where are you looking for positions? Baytown/La Porte have fairly big demand for piping engineers and open positions will really pick up in the new fiscal year around mid-October early November.
Energy corridor around Katy seems to have positions sporadically and there are...
Hello StructCA,
Have you checked sources like payscale.com, salary.com, and glassdoor.com? All of them have salary information for your area based on salaries others have reported. Another thing to consider is does the company have the means to increase your pay, after doing a little research...
Honestly it depends on your cube space. Most of ours are laid out in a way that the sound won't travel to your neighbor. That doesn't stop them from giving us the nice wireless headsets though, which make it easier to multitask since you can actually step away from your desk to some degree.
I agree with Panther on that. ME is such a broad field to be working to start, look at the scope of classes you took for your degree. The next step in my mind is figure out what classes you loved or since you're starting excelled in. Look for a position that utilizes those skills. After which...
The engineer I was working under in my first company out of college had 30 years experience in down hole tool design. He had been with the company for 28 of those 30 years. As soon as we were bought out by a larger company he was given the option of early retirement or being cut loose because of...
This thread was a long interesting read, but has anyone considered what happens next for when you have achieved your dream or failed to achieve it after spending so much time chasing it? I would imagine it's rather difficult to reevaluate what you want after spending so much time chasing after...
Varun,
Don't worry too much about not having a position immediately after graduation. It took me a little over 6 months to find my first position after graduating with a GPA of 2.6 or 2.8; I really can't remember which GPA it was. Don't be afraid to take a part time or full time job with...
