Woldan Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 The only thing I can think of is; circuit breakers, when tripped, usually require you to move the switch all the way to the off position to reset, before switching back to the on position. Maybe you didn't move it all the way off the first time you tried resetting it? Or light bulb cancer. I worked the switch really hard several times, I don't think thats the cause of the problem. And the light at the entrance door outside -which is hooked to the staircase circuit- did work. So there was power. Or light bulb cancer. ****.

Amentep Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 To be honest the paranoid part of me would be wondering if there was a problem with the wires on the stairwell bulbs. Does it have dual switches (ie you can turn it on/off at the top of the stairs or at the bottom)? Could there be some sort of problem with one of the switches? Although, weirdly, with bulbs flying over the place, Gfted might have been right about witchcraft... I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcador Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Weak technically, but was well spoken, seemed to be reasonably sharp. So I assume her math mistake was due to rushing. No hire though.

Hurlshort Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) Sometimes when a bulb gets too hot it will pop and stop working, but might not be damaged enough to be burnt out completely. So once it has cooled off, it can still function. Which means you might have a wiring issue somewhere in there. edit: Just realized Amentep theorized that already.

BruceVC Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Interviewed a lady for work, on one test she calculated 12 x 8 as 60. Hrm. What did she look like, presentation and perception is very important to the image you want to project as a company. To be perfectly honest I know many people who aren't that great at basic math but still play an important role in corporate structure. Besides Malc this is Canada, you guys allow major's who are caught smoking crack to stay in power so who cares about people who don't understand math "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Malcador Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 It's a technical position, while that is a tiny mistake it's a bit baffling for a fresh University graduate to screw that up. The most common misake on that question is just messing up the RPN and saying 8 times 2 not 12 times 8. Booked some time off today, so I have that look forward to help me drag myself through the work day. 1 Why has elegance found so little following?

Raithe Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Just got home from training. Circuits. 20 minutes with about 3-4 minutes of break in there. three "circuits" with 30 seconds of each exercise. I'm feeling a little broken and not so much looking forward to the next workout. Still, shower, tea, food and I'm sure it'll start to feel better... 1 "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woldan Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 (edited) I have such sore abs from yesterdays training that I had to roll out of my bed, I'm practically temporarily disabled. Alternating floor oblique twists with 10 kilogram weights are killer. Which won't stop me from going cycling, I want to break my record in climbing the toughest part of my cycling route, the murder-hill. Its time.

Woldan Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Mount Moth******er is the name commonly used where I live. Although I'm no cyclist ... unless you add motor-. I know a Mount Mamba. Winds uphill like a never ending snake and its just as deadly to a cyclist. Also there is a small but extremely steep climb- so steep you have to take it easy on the pedals otherwise you lift your front tire- which I call ''anthill'' to make it seem less intimidating.
