Ughhhh the company I interviewed with in DC last Thursday/Friday is awesome. I would definitely accept a job offer if they threw one my way, and a full time position was discussed when I was there but I didn’t do anything official to change my interview purpose from internship to job.

Their HR just called me to offer me an internship. I asked what full time options are immediately following the internship. They were under the impression that I’m graduating in 2019 rather than 2018. So now they are going to discuss it at a 4:30 staff meeting and call me back tomorrow.

God dammit I feel like my dream chick just said “let me think about it” after asking her to the prom.

My apartment is turning into a home gym. My property's gym has poo poo for equipment and no barbells at all. Bought a curl bar and a starter pack of bumper plates today. It would be great to have a power rack and a 7' bar but I think I'd have to get rid of my couch to make room. How bad is it to attempt bench-pres with a curl bar? Should I just buy a junior length barbell as well? I'm getting uneven progress from getting all of my chest work from dumbbells.

narrow grip, which is what you're going to get with a curl bar, is tough on your shoulders.

Yeah. But they aren’t the most responsible bunch. I’m a worrier no matter who takes care of him. The situation that would have him the safest is if my neighbors taking care of him, but they have two kids and cats and would leave him alone overnight in my house. Which I guess isn’t bad, but I would feel more comfortable if someone was with him overnight.

I’m just really neurotic about Monty.

I also don’t actually expect anyone to come to my part of VA just to take care of him.

I emailed my team yesterday telling them please for the love of god don't say poo poo to me about Veteran's Day since it's like two weeks to go. Half of them get it at least, the other half well I don't care but I told them not to say anything. Unfortunately I will still get about sixty people in my office thanking me next thursday :smithicide:

It’s actually a firm that has their brick and mortar location in Alexandria but almost all of their clients are in DC. The firm has ~800 people but their office space only fits about 100 because they travel to the client and rarely do work at the firm’s location.

So the best answer I can give you is all over DC.

Yeah wheel bearings are some poo poo that I hand off to a mechanic and I don't bitch about the bill. They're a pain in the rear end to do right, and if you gently caress them up you have to do them again.

Only emojis can express my pure, simple stupidity.

My college is always sending me emails about the veteran poo poo going on and trying to get me involved etc. They sent a 2nd email about recognizing vets for Veterans Day, having them send in their pic/story I guess, pissed that only 5 people replied

Meh. Wheel bearings usually need to be overtorqued for preload, then bumped back and torqued to spec.

Like a humvee, the spec is 25ft-lb or so, but the preload is something like 40-50ft-lb. All its doing is seating the bearings fully in the race. The worst part is hand-packing the bearings.
