The lady at the job fair said I'd be a pretty good fit at Lockheed with my experience.
She asked if I like Jets.
Yes. I like Jets. Lockheed lady.
Lockeed has one of the worst life to work ratio out there btw.
I was going to post this earlier but I got busy.
They do good stuff but I am from the home of Lockeed Martin. 60+ hour work weeks are not uncommon at times.
That might be a DC thing.
My acquaintances at LM in Orlando didn't work obsessively long hours. I mean, 40-45 was the norm, but not 60+ regularly.
Denver.
I don't know about here in DC.
The Martin part of Lockeed Martin is out of Denver. ULA is there too.
Also the engineers and stuff. The work life balance has always been shit. About 60% of my dad's patients worked at Lockeed and that was common. One of my best friends is at the ULA part of Lockeed and he does 50+ hour weeks a shit ton.
Kickstarter continued to grow in 2015 — especially as a destination for games, with nearly 1 million backers contributing more than $133.6 million to 2,259 successful projects, according to statistics published by Kickstarter today.
Both the funding and the number of projects were up significantly from 2014, when gaming Kickstarters raised a total of $76.1 million for 1,980 successful projects.
Interesting, the funding jumped up way more than the number of projects.
oh my god soda dungeon is dumbest thing that i can't stop playing
I played it for a bit.
My problem with all those types of games is nothing actually changes, so I get bored after a bit of progress and the grind stops being enough and since there's literally nothing else to those games, that's the end. The same thing happened with Dungeon Boss and Space Miner Wars, although I got a lot more mileage out of that last one because there's a few different things to do and attack on other players' bases allows you to employ a few different tactics.

Weird my brother was in Colorado Springs, worked as a software engineer (same field) and never had long hours like that.
not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me

In DC/MD the Lockheed people I know work in the 45-50 hour range. And they get paid Texa$.
oh to add on the above, in his excellent book "Egypt, Israel and Canaan in Ancient Times" Redford generally takes the view that the exodus is not based on any real event. But he does spend some time on what - if one disregards anything in the bible about dates or numbers - it could potentially be a memory of. He makes the interesting observation that there was one event where people from Canaan were forced out of Egypt. But it puts quite a different spin on the story if so.
Way back near the end of the Middle Kingdom (maybe 18th or 19th century BCE, it's hard to date) Egypt was having problems. The central government had broken down and there were multiple people ruling parts of the Nile all claiming to be the one true Pharaoh. A coalition of peoples from the eastern Mediterranean took the opportunity to invade. The later Egyptians referred to them as "Rulers of Foreign Lands" and the Egyptian for that was mangled by the Greeks into the word "Hyksos" (which later led to no end of scholars assuming this was an ethnic designation and arguing about where the "hyksos" came from and often asserting they must have been White People).
The coalition of the Hyksos raided down the Nile at least to south of Thebes in the far south (there is a destruction level from that time at the site). But they probably only directly conquered and stayed in the Delta with a capitol at Avaris. Upper Egypt was probably reduced to city-states owning allegiance and tribute to Avaris. The descendants of the conquerors seem to have been fairly successful and prosperous for nearly 100 years. In the far south several Egyptian cities put themselves back together and started growing more independent over time. Eventually a particularly effective ruling family from Thebes starting making war on the other Egyptian cities of Upper Egypt and building up power to challenge Avaris. Although they had a rough time of it for a while (the mummy of one of their leaders shows he was hacked down in battle, though against who is unknown) the ruling family of Thebes eventually conquered the length of the Nile becoming the 18th Dynasty and starting the New Kingdom period.
The circumstances of its creation led to the ruling dynasty of the New Kingdom to have something of a persecution complex. There is a strong sense of "never again!" in their proclamations and foreign policy. When they conquered the delta and forced its rulers to flee into Canaan they insisted on following through with the war all the way across the northern Sinai into the Negev until they had wiped out the rulers of Avaris and all their holdings. From then on they had an extremely aggressive foreign policy which, as they tell it, was basically "conquer them before they can do it to us again". This led to the creation of the empire that I mentioned above. For the previous 1500 years the Pharaohs had frequently raided other lands but had never shown any interest in sticking around. The 18th dynasty (especially during the time of their military genius Thutmose III) decided the only way to secure the Nile was to conquer the land of Canaan for good.
And so we have the only time in history where a people from Canaan were forced out of Egypt by a wrathful Pharoah.

James Passin, a hedge fund manager at Firebird Management, believes the nuclear-armed country sits on as much as a billion barrels of crude — enough to make it as big a producer as Oklahoma. If the oil exists, he wants to help unlock it.
“You have a country with 25 million people — young, highly disciplined, literate — and a strong military-industrial complex,” he said in an interview. “It’s possible that the early investors will be rewarded with potential for massive appreciation.”
I mean I guess that's one possible way to describe the people of North Korea....
Literate seems like a stretch. :bzz:
But uhh that is special.
The official rate is 99%. The reality isn't probably that high but still considering how backwards it is in so many other respects a 70% literacy rate would be pretty good.
I was being weird and looking at soundtracks for stuff I've been in (In college, not in the 70s) and noticed the comments.

How recent is that? Everyone I've met never does more than 40 hours, and a lot of them work from home.
I played it for a bit.

See my last post.
Recent as Thanksgiving.
Maybe programmers are different but they abuse the shit out of their engineers and some of their other staff.
Weird my brother was in Colorado Springs, worked as a software engineer (same field) and never had long hours like that.
Either way, for six figures I'd do 60 hour weeks.

True story: I failed my first driving test because I wasn't aggressive enough.
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
It was more like this:
This was a good read! And also disappointing, I thought Bitcoin was neat.
lololololol
now bitcoin is dead too? ;-;
always in threes
What I'm sayin' is, how do we know it's really dead?
I wouldn't do consistent 60 hour weeks for six figures. Or at least not the six figures range that saying "six figures" implies.
My question is: how did he sell all his coins??
Do u like sharks tho
I would consider it for like two years maybe
As long as it's... yeah at least a little higher than just what's implied by six figures
It gets better too
