    time to move now?

    I think it really depends on how willing you are to relocate (at your expense for the teaching most likely). The area I just moved to has a heavy influence from large companies like Kohler, Oshkosh Corporation, Gardner Denver, Etc... Because of this, the local high schools all have several...

    Company Funded Graduate Degree

    I obtained an MBA in international business. Undergraduate degree(s) were in mechanical and aerospace engineering. Currently I'm a lead development engineer managing an R&D team on medical devices (but at a different company than the one that paid for most of my MBA). At my last company I was...

    How best to approach and explain decisions on hiring to HR

    Great feedback everyone, I really appreciate your insight into this. I've had the holiday to think about this, and think I have a game plan in place. I am putting a 1 page form together where I will rate candidates on a 3 point scale. Then I will drawn an imaginary line in the sand as the...

    How best to approach and explain decisions on hiring to HR

    I have had a few years now of low level management, with small teams usually consisting of myself, 1 other engineer, and a CAD person. I was very recently awarded my masters degree in international business, following a very long 2 years of after work schooling. Upon completion, my company...

    "Liquid Springs" - comments?

    I wish I still had it, but I had a video where we had a very large military style troop transport hitting a 5G event and pretty much blowing the L/S components to bits. It was quite fun to watch over and over and over... Definition of irony: A Ford Focus driver with ADD...

    "Liquid Springs" - comments?

    Jay, I have worked with Liquid Spring quite extensively in the past and know their main people very closely as we have worked together for years. I also am close friends with the person that developed their technology. Their system is a very advanced hydropneumatic system that is very close to...

    A Question About Graduate Certificate

    My company has an open policy about any education or class. If you can justify the need, they will generally agree to pay for it. Perhaps you should talk to your HR department and see what they feel about this certificate and see if they would consider covering the cost. Definition of irony...

    PMP after MBA

    Krikha, In my experience, the PMP will garner you better opportunities than the MBA will. I will be finishing my MBA next month, and my current company will be giving me a small promotion and a 10% raise as a reward. I will not get any extra responsibility, I will just be put in charge of new...

    Having a brain fart, need help please

    Update... My brain fart must have passed last night. I was sitting in my office enjoying a nice glass of Crown Royal Black, when it hit me. Due to the location of the FL value, I don't need to look at them at first. I had to write two equations and solve for my unknown values. FU = R1+R2...

    Having a brain fart, need help please

    I might have had a unit issue. I broke the equations out and did one section at a time and then added everything up. Here is what I have... Lets call the left side 1 and the right side 1. M1 = (Fu*a*b^2)/l^2 = 227,960 inLb = 18,996.7 ftLB M2 = (Fu*a^2*b)/l^2 = 148,045 inLb = 12,337 ftLb R1...
