Hey guys I know most of you are pretty young (it's beyond weird to be one the NS oldheads) but I just wanna say, in relation to the therapy conversation, your generation is pretty fucking rad to all be stoked on vulnerability and mental health. It really wasn't that long ago when I was a teenager/college age and someone asking about therapy on NS would have gotten flamed in some fashion. Even if the response was mostly positive, there for sure would have been two or three people who were just way too cool for feelings and it would have derailed the conversation.
So yeah, gen z and shit is really killing it in the mental health game, and it's super refreshing to see

profa_212Had a buddy do this with his long term GF in a tow behind camper. Said it was tough, especially because theirs didn't have a shitter/shower. climbing gyms/truck stops get old after a while
Then she decided that she was poly 4 years into the relationship and wanted to fuck their climbing buddy they met in Squamish. He said no but she fucked him anyways and moved into a poly commune/cult type thing in San Francisco and refused to give him access to the camper so he could sell it.
So make sure you get a camper with a shitter in it I guess idk man
I have no exaggeration heard this exact story at least two other times.....are people ok?
RparrI am very close to being fully cured of bilateral wrist tendonitis of 4 years. Pretty stoked, I thought my hands were going to hurt forever
Wrist/hand tendonitis was the most annoying pain I’ve had and I barely had it for long you skiing with that for 4 years is nuts that’s awesome you’re close to getting it fixed Lfg

My father just finished up his stingray. Thankfully no political stickers.
Farmville420Looks sick up there too, tbf mine if just because my phone does like 20 second exposures it was only slightly visable to the naked eye
I was gonna post about it here but I forgor
So jealous of new england apparently they got some crazy visuals
Trying to hold a phone steady enough for a decent picture for 20 seconds is a challenge. I was getting decent pictures with 4s exposer and had a tough time.
There has got to be some sort of irony that the best way to enjoy this natural phenomenon is through a phone screen.
muffMan.Spark right? My girl has them on her setup, they are so smooth and quality is insane
yup, their shop is the most wild thing i have seen. never would i have thought that a shop of their size would be in bozeman. Best part is they're super flexible with me being a full time student
Doubt it. My physics prof told me about this years ago. Every decade there is a period where the sun goes crazy and there's a ton of solar flares, NOAA is predicting it'll last until 2026 at the latest so buy a nice camera and enjoy it while it lasts
armchair_skierIs there any benefit to be gained from using linkedin?
My college roommate was big on crypto early and I got to watch them go through a mental breakdown on LinkedIn when FTX collapsed and their company went down with it.
That’s the only thing I got out of having an account for 14 years.
Fab shop? Machining? Hard to find a shop that will make room for my classes as well. Most of the ones I want to work at are a two hour commute each way. At a bike shop as a wrench/ builder for now.

They do just about everything, counted at least 5 large multi axis Haas mills, 1 injection molding machine, 2 Swiss lathes, phat anodizing setup. Got super lucky with finding this spot

Got my previous and current jobs from recruiters hitting up my Linkedin DMs. Probably will find my next job the same way if I ever leave my current company.

SlushSeasonI've gotta caution you against doing this. Your engineering degree effectively has an expiration date for your first job. Taking one year off after college is usually ok, but two years is pushing it. Nobody wants to hire an engineer then have to re-teach them statics and strength of materials. Especially with the job market slowing, you might find yourself getting passed over for kids fresh out of college for the limited jobs. In that case you'd have to go to grad school to kinda reset things otherwise you'll be shut out from engineering jobs
I think you're best off getting any engineering job for now then leaving in 1-2 years if you can get a ski industry engineering job
ive definitely heard this side too. not trying to waste that engineering degree. ill hit the engineer job apps hard in winter / spring. had to chase the dream of being an engineer in the ski industry tho. thought building a lift would be a good in

This is awesome to hear as a mech eng degree holder. I got it in '22 and haven't done anything related to engineering in two years, partly due to not wanting to relocate. Well now I do want to relocate and get an engineering job next year. The other thing I want to do is apply to Officer Training School and hopefully become a military flight officer. Im probably hosed...

Damn. Yeah you might struggle to get a decent engineering job at this point
Are you set on a specific branch of service? I have a couple navy pilot friends. From their experience, flying for the AirForce is the most competitive. Next up is fixed wing Navy, then fixed wing Marines. Flying rotorcraft, especially for the Army, sounds like the easiest way be become a pilot.
