My advice to you

>>>warn of threat to life safety and financial
Are you in the US? If so, lawyer up or go to the EEOC. The reprimand may be considered retaliation for filing a safety complaint. That's a big no no by the company.

Not the US. But ill see if there are any other laws in my country.

Thanks.

This was just a warning to anyone considering a career with responsibilities in engineering or design.

Shit needs to be taken seriously, or people die.

I wish more people were as responsible as you anon. The big bosses think that they dont need employees. They are wrong. Without them they are super fucked. Too bad many people lack the courage and rather take the falling shit.

I took it for a long time because I. Didn't know any better.

I was fresh out of graduation and eager to work.

I've come to realise that working 60h weeks isn't a thing to brag about. Its something to be ashamed of if you're not being paid to do it.

That, and productivity is irrelevant in an industry where a lack of quality can cause things to collapse.

From a personal perspective, if I'm on a construction site, tired and barely functional - theres a higher chance that i will simply end up getting crushed or impaling myself on rebar.

Holy fucking shit. I work for us gov in the military as an EE and this shit right here is scary.

Even though I'm salaried I get overtime and workload is light. Get to travel too. Anon you can do better than this shit. Your boss is a greedy cunt.

Best threads in adv are always jobs related.

Any military training?

Or just am ee background?

Thanks for sharing dude. This isn't pertinent to me but I wish someone told me this a year ago. Have been stuck in a dead end job for way too long and I'm finally moving past it.

No problem.

If i can help a single person, that's the aim of this thread.

I literally never come to adv, but i know A lot of you guys are often too scared to say things.

Sometimes its essential that you say something, you'd rather be fired than sued for manslaughter.

No training. I work as a civilian. Just need clean record to gain clearance and a degree in EE. They're paying for my masters too.

>>18423709
Ah I see.

I graduated with a masters in engineering when I was 21 - a little earlier than most.

When I first started i was in a similar position to you. Be careful. Once you get that masters, whoever your work for in the private sector will be up your arsehole with a stick, trying to make you cut corners.

Not sure how the military works, but good luck.

My dad was an EE and taught me when i was younger, but these days i can barely remember how to even use thevenin or any of maxwells equations..... Feels bad man.
