I could really use some constructive feedback on my profile. Maybe some strategies. I have several weaknesses but a few strengths.

Positives: My undergrad is in Chemical Engineering and I have plant engineering experience for some top companies like Chevron and Honeywell. My last title was “Senior Engineer” so I can claim upward mobility. I worked for two years in Saudi Arabia for a plant startup. Most of my plant engineering experience was in project engineering or supporting plant operations. My GMAT was a 750. I passed the fundamentals of engineering exam for certification. I aced a couple classes at a small business school in Shreveport LA called Frost. I have managed projects worth up to one million dollars and have some solid experience in general. I am targeted constantly by engineering recruiters. I can get one solid and one decent recommendation.

Negatives: Low GPA of 2.52 and I failed a class which resulting in me taking an extra year to finish my degree. In general my grades in college started off good and gradually got worse as my drinking increased. Honestly, this was due to drinking in college but it was worse than just partying. I am an alcoholic and did not get sober until 2018. I have four years of sobriety now and have had better success at work as a result. I am planning to use my path to recovery as an authentic and compelling essay. The essay would explain the GPA and would partially focus on how I have applied recovery principles to build integrity in my work, etc. thoughts on this? I suspect the stigma around addicts has lessened in recent years and I would like to use this to my advantage if possible. Job-hopper. My first three companies were short term. My second company (Chevron) was 4.5 years. I took a 6 month sabbatical to help my parents with their house and travel sober. I returned to the industry with a Senior level role for a couple years. I left the company in November to cram for the GMAT and get applications in for Round 2. I graduated from undergrad spring 2011.

Additional Notes: 33 year old white male USA looking at schools in the Midwest. The goal post-MBA is Product Manager in Tech (Artificial Intelligence ideally). I would like to get into startups/investing eventually but I want to stay in the Midwest. Regarding schools: Booth - Probably too much of a stretch and may not bother but could be encouraged. Ross - Stretch. Notre Dame - Target. Washington University - Target. Michigan State - Safety. Purdue (Execut

I posted this list a few years ago, but most of the links are still good.

Figured I would compile a list of the free rides offered tonight for all over the U.S.

Feel Free to add others that you know/find.

Don't be afraid/ashamed to call and get a ride for you or for someone else that needs it. If you don't want to contact leadership, there are plenty of options available. GET HOME SAFE!!!

Do your worst!

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

It really does, I swear!

They’re on standbi

Pilot on me!!

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

When I got home, they were still there.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.

Daughter: I'm hungry

Me: nerves building, smile widening

Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.

She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.

Thank you all for listening.
