Well, my awesome life of slacking will finally come to an end on Nov 30th, because the semiconductor manufacturing plant decided to hire me as a CIM automation engineer. Training will begin on Dec 1st, so there goes my days of playing video games non-stop and taking nap at daytime, I think.
For a first job, the offer is actually pretty good though. First I will have sufficient income to both cover my spending and meanwhile save some. Then the plant which I will work at is only 10 minutes of scooter ride away.
And there isnât too many downsides, either. One of them being I canât bring my smartphone into the building, so I can only access the Internet when my shift is over. The other is I occasionally have to wear a cleanroom suit, just like how the server workers wear in the Chongqing level.
For your reference:
Donât worry though, I will still be here and browse the forum every day I am off my work. It will just be less frequently, I think. This is my first career job though, so my parents are finally relieved and very happy about it. I just hope there will still be enough time for me to play games.
I never worked in clean room often and long enough to get bad skin of it, I just was part of the crew that repaired the machines there. But I can imagine the skin suffers from it, though good lotion is helping much.
Oh well, thank goodness that I was informed my job will only require me to occasionally wear it. Part of the job description is about improving the efficiency of production line, so I can only imagine operatorsâ pain of wearing the outfits all the time. But I will keep it in mind, thank you!
(and, uh, could someone post in the Season of Chicken thread? Just anything. Iâve posted 3 times in a row there and canât post another. Iâd at least like the thread to be updated with a new comment from me once this is done.)
So you know how my old firm kind of turned me into a burnt out husk of a woman? Yeah they can suck it. Got a new job!! A bit of a commute but I get good vibes and the pay is right. And if itâs not? Iâm not locked into a contract this time so if it sucks I can hit the bricks. Between that happening and the Fuck Mansion announcement, everythingâs coming up Bourbon!
I got some bad news⊠I wanted to write my masterâs thesis next semester and finally finish my studies. But yesterday the university told me that the professor who was supposed to supervise my work had left the university. It is currently unclear whether I will get a replacement for the next semester. In the worst case, I have to study another semester I hate university
What? That was ridiculous to have to study an extra year for such unfortunate incident. I donât know if different uni handles differently, but when I studied there, one of our professors unfortunately passed away. His student was then indeed reassigned to another professor, and her research subject didnât seem to change, I think.
Perhaps you can try sending emails to other professors who you get along with better, or that their specialties matching with the thesis youâre currently working on. In any case, I wish you good luck!
Thank you in Germany one semester is only half a year, but still, I donât want to study another six month Yes, I already spoke to two other professors and I hope they will answer soon and I still hope that university will find a solution, too.
The problem is that the professors only supervise a certain number of students for their masterâs thesis each semester. You have to apply for a place in advance. And the places for the upcoming semester are of course all taken. Therefore I donât know whether a professor still has a free place. I just have to wait for that now
Clemens has the record of 92 for now, which is the best in the new forum.
The top on the old forum was Travisâs post about SE dumping IO and stuff with 102.
Shit man that sucks. I have no idea how graduate level stuff works but I can imagine itâs a bit tough to find someone with the necessary expertise to help you especially if your thesis topic is a bit more niche. Hopefully they find someone for you soon
Thank you well the topic is kinda regular, but we donât have many professors who can do the supervising; thatâs the main problem. So the few we have already have enough students, but I still hope someone will take me I guess I need to beg a little
That didnât give your fingers pruney skin, did it?
