Women are indifferent to engineering, it is a terrible difficult major, and job security is only decent not amazing.
>>30007195
I'm just being practical, anon: even if you don't care about the power bill, air conditioning only works if you're willing to close every single window and shutter in your home. And then make sure you don't go out till evening.
A fan, instead, moves the air a lot more efficiently and most of all doesn't get your body used to the lower temperature.

>>30007208
if you have a modern house they can easily hold in cool air and keep out hot weather. the only time air conditioning would be a waste of money would be if youre living in a shitty shack or mobilehome with paper walls.
>>30007218
>they can easily hold in cool air and keep out hot weather.
I know, that's what I said "willing to close every single window". Air conditioning doesn't work by spouting out cold air constantly, but by lowering room temperature. If you let the windows opened, how do you expect it to work?
But yeah, closing the shutters is a bit extreme and necessary only when you don't have insulated glazing.
>>30007208
What's your insulation like?
I'm reasonably sure you're exaggerating.
If you just have even the basic fiberglass insulation.
The heat transfer coefficient used for convection. Is very low.
Assuming that you live even in an area with 200-degree temperature outdoors. The AC wouldn't have to run for very long too keep your house cool.
If you just use the Stefan–Boltzmann law for heat transfer and assume your home is a black body, you can find the exact temperature you can keep your house and for how long without wasting too much money on cooling and or heating. You can set up cycles and shit so that you don't get jewed so hard.
Attached is just some rando graph because you didn't tell me what your insulation is and who supplied it.

>>30007339
What >>30007355 said, it's not exactly something you'd be aware of, symptoms can take 10 to 40 years to appear after exposure depending on circumstances.
A little bit isnt likely to do much, but if you work construction or a related trade that can come in contact with it it's something you need to seriously watch out for, this fucking shit can stay airborne for hours after being disturbed accidently.
If you're handling anything built pre 1980 you should assume they used asbestos until you know otherwise.

>>30009019
Mostly what >>30009066 said. 95% of the job is patient watch for people the doctors have placed on Form 1, which is when you've been deemed a threat to yourself or others, so the hospital can legally hold you for observation for up to 72 hours. The other 5% is dealing with riffraff, mostly caused by the previously mentioned Form 1s.
This would be all well and fine if we were actually compensated a fair wage for possibly getting punched in the face having to restrain some drugged up piece of shit, but let's just say that G4S has a funny idea of what they think a hospital security guard is worth.
>>30009229

I worked with Allied Barton before they went under.

Yup, sounds about right. A doctor or nurse could show up to work drunk and high, fuck something up, and security's ass would still find a way on the chopping block because we're the fucking bottomfeeder scum of the hospital staff and it's easier just to fire the $13/hr guard than to discipline the person who actually fucked up.
But the moment a patient starts getting agitated for having to wait hours for a nurse to see them CODE WHITE CODE WHITE PLS HALP SECURITY

We had this one meth-head/type2 diabetic that would spike his blood sugar level when the hospital wouldn't give him meds.
The put him in ICU and every five minutes he would scream "HEEELLLP!!!!" "HEELLLLLPPPP!"
