being told these red stitched work wear jackets are employee only for long beach from around 2006-07.

anybody know if there’s any truth to this?

i know 06-07 is a stretch for vintage but figured this would be the best thread to ask

Hi all,

I’m a 2025 ME grad, right now i’m working at a large Fire Protection company as a Sales Engineer. Happy to have a job with this market and living in a nice city, and I like my job.

Very afraid of being pigeon holed into the construction industry. Right now my job doesn’t even need me to be an engineer per se but they obviously like technical background. I don’t have the strongest resume from school, I was an athlete at a small school so not many clubs or extra curriculars and a no name school. And now a year of experience most people don’t care about unless it’s a sales or estimating role.

I’ve been looking for a new job to get back more based in engineering. Interviewed for a technical sales job around my area and a project estimator job in a nearby city. long story short I just got offered the project estimator job but it’s again with a construction company. I guess I’m asking if the project estimation role is worth pursuing as far as my career. Or if I should get out of construction as soon as possible.

I have dreams and aspirations and wanna make money as do we all. I would ideally love to get in to management and team leading etc asap. I like customer facing roles and interacting with many different parts of the business and know my strengths lies in being personable and getting along with people, understanding lots of people, being able to communicate with lots of people but also having the technical background. A big reason why I wanna get into management.

Any thoughts, input, considerations to have are appreciated. Thanks

Hi all.

Just had my bike give up on me so I’m on the market for a new one. I was riding a ‘01 r6, it was a tad beater but my first bike and got a couple summers out of it. I never really pushed because I didn’t trust the bike completely but I know I’m very comfortable riding. I grew up on the back of a bike. Ripping 4 wheeled go carts etc I’m not afraid of fast per se.

The question is do I get another 600 or get a liter bike. I don’t necessarily know if the increase is needed. I don’t feel like it is. But will it be worth it to get super dialed into a 600 before bumping up. Or should I just take the leap now.

I’m pretty tall at 6’5 around 230 right now. And people online said that some of the liter bikes are a lot more comfortable for us bigger guys.

Any input appreciated😃
