So its been ages since I have put anything up. It turns out Downer EDI has offered me part time work during semester as well, so I have been really busy ever since trying to fit everything in. The mid-semester exams have all finished now (although I have a 40% assignment due Friday, so I better make this short). Now we are just finishing off a lot of assignments, and getting ready for the finals. It feels like uni just started again. Talking about the comic at the top, you might remember when the ICB in brissie flooded earlier this year (I think). According to a civil engineer I know, the maintenance staff turned the alarms off because the sound was annoying them. The engineers were blamed by the media, but there is clearly a problem in understanding. I know at work, (I often draw plans for the mine planning department) we all know that on site the plan will not be followed exactly, but maybe there could be more ability for communication between operators and engineers involved in the planning stage.
