UTAH (and Surrounding Areas) BS Thread

I had the same trouble when I was trying to move out here. I just completely took my address off my resume. And in the address blocks of the application online (if they had one) I literally put “ relocating to Ogden”

 

Someone who analyzes the supply chain, would be my guess.

 

My buddie Luke’s silver tundra was stolen! Any info on it please call Luke

 

Someone that looks to optimize the supply chain. Collect data and suggest cost improvements on projects whether it be labor costs or procurement costs. Timeline improvements, contract negotiations, etc...

 

I had to Google supply chain just to be sure.

Have you ever worked in a prefabrication shop?

 

I work in a fab shop currently. Operating and programming CNC mills and lathes and MIG/TIG welding. Lol.

Was unhappy with the company I was working for doing procurement and got offered this for more money. But I worked in SCM for 3 years and have a bachelors in SCM so that’s what I’m trying to get back into.

 

That sucks in general. I can’t speak for that role specifically, but I can say none of the business side of the company has been in office since March and won’t be until (at the absolute earliest, if ever) July of 2021. So any interviews would have been 100% over Zoom. I do know that most of the positions that have fallen under me, we’re getting literally hundreds of applicants for. That ends up meaning some highly qualified candidates get passed up unfortunately.

If our growth continues, I’m sure there will be additional positions opening. I’ll keep an eye out and let you know if I notice any.

 

Wife and I just finished a fun little 4 day social distance, backroads and dirt road camping trip through NM, AZ, and UT.

1223 miles, including 259 miles of dirt. All easy dirt, but really neat scenery in out of the way places. All B-list type places. No busy cities, no National Parks. But all surprisingly interesting. (Except the NM piece... coincidentally)

Zuni Canyon and SR 42, outside of Grants NM, 48 miles of dirt. To be honest it was a little boring. Though we didn’t have time to drive high clearance roads to the lava tubes that may have been more fun.

Mogollon Rim, AZ: 15 years ago I ran an ultramarathon on the Highline Trail below the rim, so I thought it would be fun to drive the rim to look down on trail. We drove 57 miles of dirt following the rim FS 300, and going out to Bear Canyon Lake. lot of potential for camping and exploring up there for sure.


Cinder Hills OHV area and Coconino NF outside Flagstaff, AZ: 36 miles of deep ground pumice and rocky dirt. We tried to incorporate some dirt in our trip to Sunset crater and Wupatki. The OHV area was cool. Deep and soft, I could see getting stuck out there. The tracks on some of those hills are bananas, like hundreds of feet tall at 30+ degrees that seem mind boggling that someone could make it up or down without killing themselves.


Valley of the Gods and the Moki Dugway, UT. 20 miles of dirt. Pretty scenic little trip, not quite as dramatic as Monument Valley, which was closed due to Covid, but fun.


Between the Bears Ears, UT. 55 miles of possibly the smoothest dirt road I’ve ever been on. Most of the miles were at 8000’ and all the shady areas had a couple inches of snow. Aspens and towering evergreens, hidden views of the canyons miles below, elk herds. And so damn much potential for exploring, including access to Canyonlands NP. We will be coming back there for sure.


Montezuma Canyon, outside of Blanding UT. 44 miles of dirt. My favorite part of the trip I think. Neat sandstone canyon, that had so many ruins and petroglyphs you could just walk up to. No tours, no rangers, just history in a pretty setting.

 

Epic! Southern Utah for the win.

 

I just binge watched the Queens Gambit. It was spectacular. I highly recommend it.

Oh, and I enjoyed this as well.

 

I missed the “pre” section of “prefabrication”. Lol. No, I haven’t ever worked in prefabrication.

 

That all makes sense. I appreciate you looking out and for the insight! Thank you!

 

I am curious if the State will press charges/ fine whoever the 'artist' is. They cut the rock to mount this riveted structure. Remember when a tacomabeast etched 'TCMBST' into some rocks in moab? Although this structure looks cool, the artist should be fined..

 

Agreed. Fined and also needs to cover the cost of removal.

 

Technically it is on BLM land. So the feds could take them to court. But I doubt anything will happen besides them taking it down. I’d like to go see it before they do. It’s along a trail I’ve wanted to do anyways.

 

Yea, I plan on doing lockhart basin next year so hopefully it is still up. I am waiting for the amount of stories of people getting stuck/ lost in this area trying to find this.

 

I plan to make an effort to do it sooner, in case the BLM, who seems happy to leave deteriorating non-functional oils derricks and their associated roads and pipelines to languish for decades, will take this thing down cause of all its publicity.

 

Monoloth is gone in case anyone was gonna go look at it.

Disappeared last night as reported by a local 4x4 page.

Edit: apparently it was stolen
