It's a government job. I will be working for the Mississippi department of environmental quality. I will be issuing letters of violation and reviewing testing documents to make sure the problem has been addressed, etc.

It's kinda a stretch from what most chemical engineers do,

Government jobs are good. They don't always pay the best but they are more table and have good benefits. Like I said that's in general.

That doesn't sound too bad, actually sounds rather fun.

Yes, I will agree with that. Any government or city job is usually pretty cushy. I've worked a city job for the last three years, going on four this summer, and yes the pay isn't impressive, but the flexibility is unrivaled as well as the laziness on the job. It's not the greatest, but it pays for saw parts!

I'll be happy there. I worked a co-op job there and it was awesome. I did my work and other than that it was really laid back.

Sounds like my son in law, works at University of Georgia, heating and air. Says it's a laid back job, of course on 24 hour call once a month.

What were the others?

 

[astnmacgto]

Never bought a saw brand new, but I feel a makita blue 7910 in my future...... mmmmmm love me some makita blue

 

[Homelitexl903]

I'm disappointed makita switched colors. I liked the blue because it was good looking and different and reminded me of my grandfathers blue Homelite's.

 

[Kensie1988]

I was really upset about makita discontinuing the blue also, it's really cheap on their part...

 

[Boomer 87]

What were the others?

Poulan wild thing when i was about 19-20 years old

Blue max- sold it

Stihl ms 271 firewood cutter

Echo cs800p milling beast

Doing really good. Jointer is almost done, the top half at least, stand and motor next. Then it is on to the Homelite 350.[emoji16]

Looks sweet, but that does not look like a saw I would want to run for very long. What does that thing even weigh?

 

[Boomer 87]

Idk.......alot

 

[Jackofall]

Saw number 1 out of last weekend's 13 saw score running... chain is whooped but that's what happens when the previous owner puts it on backwards [emoji50]

What kind of chain is that, looks like a too safety of a chain. Dont see how that thang could cut.
