Been cleaning every time I’m in a meeting that I don’t have to say anything in. My house is spotless. I’m so 🥲 proud of myself.

People seriously, even if it’s a 15 minute asinine meeting, get to work. I was scrubbing the mold off my tub caulk. Felt so productive, may never go back to daydreaming again.

A few that worked for me in the early pandemic days when we were all paranoid about proving we’re working.

“Sorry, all, having wi-fi issues today.”
“My machine has been lagging with the camera on. Need IT to give me an upgrade bad.”
“Having some work done in my apartment, so going camera off today.”
“Working from a different room today and have a spotty connection here.”
“Sneaking in a meal right now and no one needs to see me eating.”

Any Bridge Engineers/Structural Engineers in here? I got my PE this year and have 5 YOE in TX + an MS. What sort of raise would you expect for receiving your PE working in a consulting firm? I am EOR on a number of structures in development, I manage EITs and Drafters (within projects; I'm not a supervisor), and am doing a lot in general. I'm at 78k currently, which is apparently still in the upper range of EIT salaries per a job posting in CO. I'm thinking of 15% (5% merit, 10% PE). Any ideas?

Although management says it will have no impact on us, am suspecting that's not the case.

Please, share your thoughts as am thinking that moving to CBS we will lose some perks.
