    Tug of war...me or company

    Being this the case, follow "company's profit". Your current "boss" will fall into a big pile of s*&t sooner or later and he'll be in trouble. Let him sink by himself...but you do the right thing, your "boss" is not the one signing your check, but rather your company.

    Tug of war...me or company

    Very tough, been there. I kinda' know what you're going through. My ex-boss is like that (he in fact lost lots of clients for his s.t.u.p.i.d attitude towards people) Yeah, it was not even my company, but I am a person, and felt very bad for prospective clients, and a couple of times I talked to...

    Quiting and working for competition, ethical?

    Hi whyun!, thanks for your advice, but that is why I previously said: "And yes, all of us need and like to get a good salary.." Salary is an incentive but, as the credit card commercial says "there are things money can't buy". With all respects, I disagree with your comment [i]"that sense of...

    Quiting and working for competition, ethical?

    Hi JAE!! Thanks for your comment: "You should carefully analyze whether you KNOW whether your current employment conditions are unacceptable or will not change. If you don't know that for sure, then perhaps at least opening the door to a counter offer is feasible. But only do this if you feel...

    Quiting and working for competition, ethical?

    Thanks all for your responses, I guess I'm here to read your comments and recommendations so I don't make a mistake. Well, it seems that I can take this job as soon as I want, it just a matter of aceppting and giving my 2-weeks notice. I haven't taken this year's vacation, questions: shall I go...

    Quiting and working for competition, ethical?

    Hi fellas!! Ok here is the deal, I'm to the point in which I'm considering moving to a different LOCAL company doing the same engineering design work I do at my actual company.

    Converstions using your first language at work

    Hi epoisses You're correct. For example, although Hindi is the main language in India, they have hundreds of languages and dialects, but weird thing, nobody makes a big deal out of it. Regards

    Converstions using your first language at work

    Hi fellas, well here is a "situation" at work. All this is real. Recently engineer A and engineer B were assigned a project by the principal engineer which doesn't speak a second language. He said: "You guys take care of it, just come by if you have some questions". Engineers A & B speak...

    Sole drafter for 12 years, no degree... Any chance at another job?

    He is not a nice employer, get out of there ASAP!! Good employers look for their employees to progress and apply their knowledge/experience/skills to their bussiness or for the future of the employee somewhere else. I was full time for a long time, currently I'm running another business, told my...

    Stamp Removal

    suppose your are doing your own building, which you pay the big $$bucks$$ for a professional engineer to do the design. After a while, this engineer claims his/her drawings so he can remove his/her stamp. Would allow him/her? I don't think so.. Regards

    small three phase transformers inrush current

    itsmoked,....thanks for clarifying: "It has to do with when the transformer was turned off in the power cycle and when it is turned back on" I kept thinking of just the plasma welder not the whole picture (engineering basic mistake, jajaja!) Regards

    small three phase transformers inrush current

    Hi there! doesn't plasma welders work with very high inrush currents? I dont see how by avoiding the inrush current, you will be able to run your welder. This is the way I understand your commnent, if you can be more specific please state so... Regards
