CD Disposal Where to Dump Construction Debris

CD Disposal Where to Dump Construction Debris CD Disposal: Where to Dump Construction Debris Unfortunately, you cant dispose of construction waste the same way as regular trash. Theres no tossing it in a bag and waiting for the city to pick it up. Construction and demolition (CD) debris need to be handled and removed with care because of the contaminants they contain. While this can certainly take more time, it avoids polluting the environment and saves you money from non-compliance fees.   Before we take a look at the proper methods for  disposal of construction waste, lets define and identify types of CD debris:   Construction and demolition debris is the non-hazardous material that is leftover from construction, demolition, remodeling, and repair projects. The most common types of CD debris are concrete, bricks, wood, plaster, drywall, metal, plumbing, insulation (non-asbestos), roofing material, glass, wiring, rock, and soil.   Its important to note that these disposal best practices are only applicable for non-hazardous wastes. For debris that is considered hazardous like asbestos, lead, and silica, your team will have to follow an entirely different set of disposal rules.   Clean vs. Dirty Construction Debris There are two classifications of construction and demolition debris: clean and dirty. Clean debris refers to materials that arent contaminated and are separated from different materials. For example, a bin of wood can be considered clean if there are no bricks, concrete, or other materials mixed in with it. The benefit of having clean debris is cost-savings. Disposing of a clean dumpster will cost less than a dirty dumpster.   Dirty debris simply refers to a mixture of different types of  construction debris. Whether it is a mixture of bricks and wood, or a mixture of several kinds of materials, the entire load will be classified as dirty. Although this is the most common type of construction debris, its also the most expensive because dirty materials must go to the landfill.   4 Types of CD Debris Removal/Disposal Besides the clean and dirty classifications of construction debris, there are four main types of CD disposal: reduction, reuse, recycling, and destruction.   Reduction This method of dealing with CD debris isnt a way of disposal, but rather a means to prevent the need to  dispose of construction materials. While its easier to estimate the number of materials needed for a construction project, its a lot more challenging to determine what sort of debris you will end up with after completing a demolition project. To reduce the amount of waste your project produces, consider deconstruction as opposed to demolition. As the same suggests, deconstruction is the opposite of construction. While with construction you assemble a building piece-by-piece, deconstruction involves removing building parts piece-by-piece. The deconstruction process certainly takes longer than bulldozing an entire building, but it can pay off. With deconstruction, you can salvage as much of the structures materials as possible. These materials can then be used for a different construction project, sold, or donated. With deconstruction, youre also able to create clean debris, which you can then recycleâ€"saving you money and saving the environment.   Reuse   While reusing materials certainly does happen in the construction industry, its usually on a smaller scale. There are hundreds of ways to  reuse construction and demolition debris. And even if the materials arent reused on your projects, someone else can reuse them.   Wood, concrete, and soil are especially reusable and are a frequent want item by community centers and maker hubs. Its easy to reuse items when your team takes the time to deconstruct a building as opposed to completely demolishing it.   If youd like your construction and deconstruction debris to be reused, spend the time separating the waste and ensuring that it can be classified as clean. You cant simply drop off a dumpster of dirty waste at a maker space for someone else to sort through and hopefully use.   Recycling   We mentioned how much cheaper construction waste recycling can be than disposing of the waste in a landfill. Still, the recycling of CD debris is also straightforward as there are thousands of recycling centers are the country. Its important to note that almost all non-hazardous construction and demolition waste materials can be recycled, including concrete, asphalt, wood, aluminum, corrugated cardboard, and metals.   To recycle your CD debris, you can choose from one of the following methods:   On-Site Processing: This method involves your team as they will be the ones sorting through the material at the project site. The non-hazardous materials will be ready for recycling and reuse after they have been sorted and categorized.   Mixed-Material Collection: While the material will still be sorted, with a mixed-material collection, your team is not the one sorting it. With a mixed-material collection, the recyclables are moved to a waste facility where theyre sorted. The material is then transferred to a recycling facility to be recycled.   Source Separation: With source separation, your team will once again be the ones sorting through the material, but as opposed to being recycled and reused by the community, the material will be sent to a facility for recycling.   Construction Waste Disposal   Construction waste disposal should be your last resort. Not only should you try to reduce, reuse, and recycle the debris to save you money, but also to help protect the environment and your fellow humans from contamination. If you do need to take your debris to a landfill, you will need to rent a dumpster with a company that accepts CD waste. Not all  dumpster rental companies  will accept construction and demolition debris, so its essential to clarify their conditions before renting from them.   If youre looking to dispose of hazardous materials at the landfill, think again. Asbestos, lead, and silica-infused materials need to be remediated and adequately disposed of; they cannot go straight to the landfill with the rest of your materials.     Learn More About Construction Waste with OSHA Training For more information on construction waste management and other construction-related topics, signup for our  OSHA 10-Hour Construction or OSHA 30-Hour Construction courses.

The Beret in U.S. Military Uniform History

The Beret in U.S. Military Uniform History The Beret in U.S. Military Uniform History In the United States military, powers have worn particular uniform things for a considerable length of time to make a mental favorable position and lift their esprit de corps, yet the military utilization of berets is a generally ongoing wonder. In the sixteenth and seventeenth hundreds of years, the Blue Bonnet turned into an accepted image of Scottish Jacobite forces. The French Chasseurs alpins, made in the mid 1880s, are perceived as the principal ordinary unit to wear the military beret as their standard headgear. One reason that the beret is alluring to the military as a uniform thing is that they are modest, simple to make in huge numbers and can be fabricated in a wide scope of colors. From the troopers see, the beret can be folded up and stuffed into a pocket (or underneath a shirt epaulet) without harm, and it very well may be worn while wearing earphones. Military berets are generally pushed to one side to free the shoulder that bears the rifle on most troopers (however some countrys armed forces for the most part Europe, South America and Iran have affected the push to one side). The far reaching utilization of the beret among Western armed forces didn't start until the twentieth century when French tank teams in World War I wore the little Basque rendition and a bigger, floppier assortment. Joined Kingdom and United States Beret History The military prominence of berets took off during the World War II period when different British units wore the headgear in a few hues including a khaki earthy colored assortment received by Special Air Services troops and a maroon assortment worn by Britain's first airborne power, the Parachute Regiment, that turned out to be lovingly known as the cherry berry. Berets Debut in U.S. Military The principal utilization of the cutting edge beret in the U.S. military was in 1943 when an Army contingent of the 509th Parachute Infantry was given maroon berets by their British partners for their administration in the war. In spite of the fact that it never stuck, the utilization of the beret began as a headgear that assigned an exceptional assistance of the military part it despite everything keeps on having that equivalent assignment to some degree. The main far reaching utilization of the headgear by U.S. powers came a couple of decades later, when another Army Special Forces unit was developed. They turned into the extraordinary association that was prepared for insurrection and counter-guerrilla fighting and started (informally) wearing a green assortment in 1953. It took an additional eight years for the Army's Special Forces - the Green Berets - to win presidential endorsement from John F. Kennedy to make their headgear official, and in 1961 the green beret of the US Army Special Forces was officially embraced. During the 1970s, Army strategy permitted nearby officers to support resolve upgrading uniform qualifications, and the utilization of berets blasted. Protective layer staff at Fort Knox, Ky., wore the conventional British dark beret, while U.S. shielded mounted force regiments in Germany wore the dark beret with a red and white oval. Troops of the 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg, N.C., began wearing the maroon beret in 1973, while at Fort Campbell, KY, the pattern detonated with post faculty sporting red, military police wearing light green, and the 101st Airborne Division accepting light blue as their color. At Ft. Richardson, AK, the 172nd Infantry Brigade started utilizing an olive green beret. In 1975, the Airborne Rangers got endorsement from the Army Chief of Staff to utilize the dark beret as their official headgear. Throughout the following barely any years, the entire thing turned crazy, so in 1979 senior Army authorities put on the brakes. Armed force authority permitted the Rangers to keep their dark berets. In 1980, airborne soldiers were permitted to keep wearing the maroon rendition. Be that as it may, all other beret assortments were proclaimed forbidden. Flying corps Berets The utilization of berets in the Air Force started during the 1970s. In 1979, enrolled staff in the Tactical Air Control Party (TACP) AFSC (work) were approved to wear the dark beret. In 1984, two aviators from Pope Air Force Base, North Carolina presented a structure for the blaze and peak plan, which was affirmed for all TACP pilot in 1985. Air Liaison Officers (ALOs) were additionally approved to wear the dark beret after they moved on from the Joint Firepower Control Course, directed at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada. Rather than the peak, they wear their rank badge on the beret. Air Mobility Liaison Officers (AMLOs) were authorized to wear the dark beret in the Air Force, too. Presently, every Air Force Battlefield Airmen (AF Special Ops) were a beret to connote their activity. Present-Day Beret Nowadays, the United States is on the low finish of the range among NATO partners as far as the assortment of berets worn by their military powers. While most nations have four or five hues approved for different military portions, Turkey, Greece, and Luxembourg have approved just three hues for different fragments of their powers. Belgium has seven and the United Kingdom has the most variety with nine. On Oct. 17, 2001, Army Chief of Staff Gen. Eric Shinseki declared that the dark beret would become standard Army headgear in the next year. The method of reasoning was to utilize the feeling of pride that the beret had since a long time ago spoke to the Rangers to encourage a disposition of greatness among the whole Army as it pushed ahead with its general change exertion to a lighter, increasingly deployable, progressively deft force. This choice, in any case, set off a firestorm in both the well-trained and veteran Ranger people group just as in the Army's other two extraordinary activities camps, the Special Forces and the airborne. In 2002, the Army made the tan-shading beret the official beret of the U.S. Armed force Rangers, and all Army fighters started wearing the dark beret. In June 2011, Army Secretary John McHugh reported that the customary watch top was to be worn with the utility uniform. Be that as it may, the dark beret might be approved with utility garbs at an administrators circumspection for exceptional functions, and the beret remains some portion of the Armys dress uniform for all units.

On July 25, in excess of 120 Congressional staff and industry partners met at the Capitol Visitor Center in Washington, D.C., for an ASME-supported Congressional Briefing concentrating on the Department of Defenses Manufacturing Engineering Education Grant Program. The board conversation, which was facilitated by the House and Senate Manufacturing Caucuses, included a gathering of topic specialists who examined how the award program will help fortify the U.S. economy and national security, while shielding the seriousness of the U.S. fabricating division. ASME President-Nominee Said Jahanmir, Ph.D., Senior Legislative Fellow in the Office of Congressman Tim Ryan (OH-13), gave inviting comments to the preparation, which was directed by Thomas Kurfess, Ph.D., teacher and HUSCO/Ramirez Distinguished Chair in Fluid Power and Motion Control at Georgia Institute of Technology and co-seat of the ASME Manufacturing Public Policy Task Force. Specialists included Brennan Grignon, program executive in the Office of the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Manufacturing and Industrial Base Policy, Department of Defense; Laurie Leshin, Ph.D., leader of Worcester Polytechnic Institute; Laine Mears, Ph.D., teacher and BMW SmartState Chair of Automotive Manufacturing at Clemson University; Stephen Ezell, chief of worldwide development strategy for the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF); and Denise Peppard, corporate VP and boss HR official at Northrop Grumman Corp. ASME President-Nominee Said Jahanmir (far right) invited participants to the ASME Congressional Briefing board conversation. Additionally envisioned are (left to right) specialists Laurie Leshin and Brennan Grignon and mediator Thomas Kurfess, co-seat of the ASME Manufacturing Public Policy Task Force. The Manufacturing Engineering Education Grant Program was marked into law in December 2016 as a component of the 2017 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), along these lines approving the Department of Defense to help industry-important, producing centered, designing preparing at U.S. establishments of advanced education, colleges, industry, and not-revenue driven organizations. Award beneficiaries are chosen through a serious procedure dependent on the benefits of better adjusting their instructive contributions to the requirements of present day U.S. producers. The new program can possibly reinforce national security and increment financial seriousness by improving and modernizing the U.S. modern base. Through this program, understudies, technologists, and makes will be better prepared to fabricate U.S. military gear and innovation locally, ensuring and making sure about the eventual fate of the American Warfighter. The Manufacturing Engineering Education Grant Program is proposed to not just reinforce the U.S. militarys abilities, yet in addition permit the United States to contend with different countries monetarily. In excess of 120 Congressional staff and industry partners went to the Congressional Briefing, which was hung on July 25 in Washington, D.C. In the territory of cutting edge producing, the United States is as of now contending economically against a scope of European and Asian countries for worldwide advancement advantage. Nations, for example, Germany and Austria, who devote a bigger level of their economy to assembling (23 percent and 19 percent, individually) than the United States (12 percent), are seeking after a few workforce improvement activities that call for patching up building educational program and workforce preparing chances to adjust assembling and designing training all the more intimately with the present and future needs of industry.

3D Printing Compete or CoExist

3D Printing Compete or CoExist 3D Printing Compete or CoExist 3D Printing: Compete or Co-Exist? Having demonstrated its incentive for fast prototyping, 3D printing is, without a doubt, majorly affecting the plan of items and subsequently on the general assembling process. In any case, there is still discussion about how far 3D printing will be expanded. Will it supplant a lot of conventional assembling procedures or exist close by it? Vicki Holt, CEO of Proto Labs, which spearheaded fast assembling of custom parts by taking a 3D printing-like computerized way to deal with the front finish of the conventional, or subtractive, fabricating procedures of infusion trim and CNC machining, trusts 3D printing is opening open doors for plan adaptability yet that its going to exist together with customary assembling forms. She says each procedure has its own advantages and its own disadvantages and a choice about which to pick relies upon various variables. A Selective Laser Sintering part; the part is appeared on the powder from which it is made. 3D printing carries another arrangement of instruments to the toolbox for configuration engineers, Holt says. It can make new item presentations quicker and more affordable during the structure stage. In the event that Proto Labs business is any sign, structure engineers are exploiting it. Holt says development of her companys 3D printing business, which it obtained in April of a year ago with the acquisition of FineLine Prototyping, Inc., developed by 79 percent in the primary quarter of this current year over first quarter a year ago (before the securing). With respect to being utilized for definite variants of items or segments, that is still in beginning times. A study a year ago by Pricewaterhouse Coopers (PwC) and ZPryme asked in excess of 100 mechanical makers how they were utilizing 3D printing innovation. Just 0.9 percent said they were utilizing 3D printing for delivering last items or parts, however 24.6 percent said they were utilizing 3D printing for prototyping just, 28.9 percent said they were trying different things with how 3D printing may apply to their business, and 33.3 percent said they were not actualizing 3D printing around then. Proto Labs appraises that 90 percent of its 3D printing business is for prototyping contrasted with 75 percent for CNC machining and around 50 percent for infusion forming. Holt says those are truly evaluates on the grounds that they dont consistently know how the things they produce will be utilized. A picture of a DMLS part demonstrating the multifaceted nature that can be accomplished. 3D printing today is moderate and costly in the event that you are going to deliver a great deal of a section, Holt says. Its substantially more financially savvy to machine or infusion shape. And furthermore you are restricted on the materials that have been produced for a 3D printer. Those are the things that should be improved. There is a great deal of work being done in those regions. I am sure there will be cutting edge machines that are starting to evaluate that. She says much relies upon a clients needs. For the most part, ProtoLabs clients request a 3D-printed part when the greatest number is 50 or perhaps 100 if its a little part. She recognized the clinical gadget showcase, aviation, modern machining and mechanical technology as businesses that are driving the path in utilizing 3D printing. Some portion of the explanation I think these enterprises will in general purchase from us is that they do a great deal of prototyping advancement and improvement and they need tests to proceed to build up their items, she says. In the event that you are fabricating one shuttle, for instance, you just need to print it once. You dont need millions, and for that you can build up a novel structure that you couldnt do with a conventional assembling process and furthermore breakdown various parts into one. It may even be increasingly productive that way. PwC announced in an issue of its Technology Forecast magazine on rising employments of 3D imprinting in a few industry divisions including car and modern assembling, aviation, medicinal services, retail, and sports. Utilizations run from union of a few sections into a solitary, progressively complex part to redid clinical items and more secure defensive rigging. Indeed, Ford, General Electric, and Medtronics are organizations at the bleeding edge; Ford for automobile parts, GE for stream motor parts, and Medtronics for prototyping clinical gadgets. Holt says she is additionally beginning to see some structure engineers investigate an entire gathering of parts and question whether there is an approach to solidify the parts, print the entire thing, and avoid the get together. This could achieve both cost reserve funds and quicker creation, she says. That by itself could be a gamechanger. Nancy S. Giges is an autonomous author.

What I Learned From Moving Back In With My Parents For My Career

What I Learned From Moving Back In With My Parents For My Career As per an investigation of 2016 U.S. Statistics information by the Pew Research Center, increasingly youthful grown-ups are inhabiting home for longer periods time. The information announced that 15 percent of twenty to thirty year olds between the ages of 25 and 35 were inhabiting home with their folks; extra research shows that among youthful grown-ups who had moved back in with their folks, the middle length of their stay was three years. Generally, the quantity of recent college grads living at home, or moving back in with their folks has expanded from past ages. In examination, just 10 percent of Generation X-ers between the ages of 25 and 35 lived with their folks in 2000. It would be too simple to even consider writing off the pattern of twenty to thirty year olds living back at home as a reaction of thelazy millennial legend, however in all actuality, more recent college grads are doing without conventional grown-up achievements like purchasing a home or beginning a family; all for the sake of seeking after cutting edge degrees and pursuing openings for work, in an economy with over the top lodging costs and stale wages. Right now, Im one of those on-pattern twenty to thirty year olds. After I was fired from an all day work with benefits the previous fall, I ricocheted to and fro among joblessness and underemployment for just about a half year. A string of independent gigs, temp occupations, and help from family kept me from vagrancy. Yet, it has as of late seemed well and good to move back in with a parent. Here are five things Ive learned: 1. Having a leave procedure is basic. I've encountered the opportunity of living alone, in my own place for nearly 12 months. To state that I was troubled about moving back to my folks home, would be putting it mildly. In any case, the guarantee of having the option to live all alone once more, is abundant inspiration to have a leave methodology; which incorporates a composed arrangement with the particular date that I plan to move out, how much cash I have to spare, and how much obligation holds me up. A leave system can likewise remember crisis assets for case living at home quits feeling like a solid decision. 2. Its important to have a discussion about desires. Does my mother love me? Indeed. Am I permitted to run amuck while living at home? No. Before I moved back, I realized that it was important to have a discussion about my commitments to the family unit. As an inventive specialist, a wireless association is my meat and potatoes, so mooching off of my mothers web didn't appear to be correct. I tried to solicit what is normal from me during my remain, with the goal that I can keep up both my freedom and my mental soundness. 3. You should do what you dont need to do, so as to get where you need to be. I havent worked at an all day work for over a year, since moving on from school three years prior. Im at last at a point, where Im developing work as an essayist. However, when I moved home, I must speak the truth about my poor budgetary propensities and the way that low maintenance composing cannot continue me. Accordingly, Ive needed to consider things like working a not exactly attractive client care work, so as to assist me with arriving at my objectives. 4. Guardians are individuals as well. I imagine that it is anything but difficult to overlook that our folks are just human. They have carried on with significantly more life than we have, and they are helpless to indistinguishable victories and disappointments from us. While I live at home, I need to make deliberate opportunity to reconnect with my mother, and exploit the way that we would now be able to have discussions that are increasingly open and all the more seeing now that Im a grown-up. 5. Its not the apocalypse. I do miss the capacity to sit on my own love seat sans pants with a glass of wine. Be that as it may, living at home with your folks isnt the apocalypse. It frequently beats the other option, and gives the time and inspiration to reset your needs. I had a semi-perpetual disapprove of my face my initial hardly any evenings back home, however have begun to make harmony with my world. It helps that I dont need to freeze about having the option to pay lease and utilities for the following year.

How to make the hiring process better for all involved

The most effective method to make the recruiting procedure better for all included Does any of this sound natural? Instructions to make the employing procedure better for all included Situation No. 1: Im a recruiting supervisor with a valuable vacant situation to fill. These are difficult to obtain, and the danger of making a terrible recruit is high. So I compose a set of working responsibilities, post it on my organization's site and web based life destinations, and tell my system and partners. Before long more than 250 list of references come flying in and I (or my spotter/HR individual) begin figuring out them. They all appear to be unique and offer various degrees of data, so I need to play look and pulverize for important aptitudes, encounters and results. Situation No. 2: I'm a vocation searcher. I'm either an inner applicant who is as of now working inside a similar organization, or Im an outside up-and-comer who is either utilized or jobless. I read the set of working responsibilities and think, This profession change is ideal for me. The directions are clear to submit list of references here, so I press enter and pause. Furthermore, pause. What's more, pause. There is no good thing in the mix of these situations. At the point when the administration calls for offers, the candidate reacts systematically to given particulars, taking into account simple examination of contending proposition. In assembling, there are likewise particulars, and the materials, instruments, and creation process are intended to meet the specific necessities. That is all. Why, at that point, is the business procedure so misinformed? The recruiting organization composes a determination (called a set of working responsibilities), and what does it get? An ordered heave of irregular highlights of a person's experience, and perhaps, (best case scenario) an introductory letter that sums up the regurgitate. Amazing. On the off chance that I could wave an enchantment wand, I would change two components of the present employing process: Enchantment Wand Wave No. 1: Résumés should simply be back-up subtleties supporting a normalized application structure. The recruiting organization ought to give a one-page format to each activity as a competitor appraisal device. It won't just assistance the employing administrator, yet will extraordinarily help the up-and-comer also. The structure is a basic table with two sections and six to eight columns. Down the left segment, the organization features the sets of expectations most significant components. For instance, one line may state, expects six to eight years in showcasing research, while another might state experience driving cross-practical item advancement groups or single man's in mechanical building required, MBA liked. You get the thought. The correct section is clear for the possibility to round out. The candidate is told to put close to three visual cues in each line, demonstrating how the individual satisfies the predefined necessity. Data can be quantitative and subjective. The table is submitted with the candidate's list of references. Employing chiefs would then have three things to assist them with settling on choice: A report to think about competitors over similar attributes, a composing test (mistakes are downright terrible!), and a perception about the up-and-comer's capacity to adhere to basic directions. Enchantment Wand Wave No. 2: All applicants would get a reaction from the organization they applied to, particularly if the competitor has made the additional move to give the pertinent experiences depicted in Wand Wave No. 1. Indeed, even a basic computerized email demonstrating the application has been gotten would give a progressively positive brand understanding for the activity searcher. There are more changes I would make, yet well spare those for some other time. What might you change about the present employing forms?

How to Know When Its Time to Leave Your Current Company to Advance Your Career -

How to Know When It’s Time to Leave Your Current Company to Advance Your Career - Have you ever felt STUCK in a job? Maybe it was because there were no opportunities for promotion, the people above you weren’t moving, or a boss was holding you back for whatever reason. Or maybe because of personal situations outside of work you didn’t feel you could leave and make a move to a new company. Lenny, 48, from New York, has been with his current employer 12 years. He’s been stuck in the loyalty trap. He has a child ready to graduate high school and another in college. He’s stayed in his current job waiting for promotions that never came when the people above him never aspired to advance, and because he didn’t want to risk relocation, he felt his options were limited. With 6.7 million job openings available and the average job switcher earning 48% more annual pay than the average job stayer it may be time for Lenny (and you) to explore new opportunities. How do you know it’s time to leave your current company? If you’ve been wondering if it’s time for you to explore what’s out there, here are a few signs it’s a good time to look around: No growth opportunities â€" and by that I mean opportunities for learning, training, and progressing. Are you thriving in your role or is it stagnant? No advancement opportunities â€" the company isn’t promoting from within, the people above you are not going anywhere in their career and have no desire to move, so there’s nowhere for you to go. The company is not growing so new opportunities aren’t being created. You’ve contributed all that you can or made the biggest impact that you can, and in order to continue making a difference you have to leave the current company. You’ve expressed an interest in moving up (maybe even multiple times) but your boss is holding you back for whatever reason. The work environment is negative and it’s creating undue stress. The culture is stifling and your ideas and thoughts aren’t taken seriously. You’re unhappy, you feel like your career is stagnant, and you realize that you could be doing more, earning more, feeling more fulfilled and more challenged if you were employed somewhere else. Even if we feel like we should make a career move, we don’t always take the next step to do it. My first job out of college I had a terrible boss. Talk about getting a real-world education! It didn’t take me long to figure out that I wasn’t going to be happy working for an overly negative boss, but it was many more months before I finally got up the courage to move on. I kept hanging on, waiting for a promotion or for the situation to change. Neither happened; I eventually had my fill and moved on. I recently asked my LinkedIn connections why they stayed in a job they hated: What holds us back from making our next career move? Providing for my family’s basic needs Kids are in a good school and don’t want to move Hard time finding a new opportunity Staying for a promised promotion Waiting to hit the 10-year mark to get retirement For money and the pension Job stability â€" to not appear like a job hopper Mortgage, college tuition â€" LIFE I also want to address some of the things that we don’t always like to talk about that cause us to stay in jobs with little-to-no growth and advancement opportunities? Fear of the unknown. I hear a lot of people lament over the “what ifs.” What if I hate the new job? What if it’s worse than my current one? What if the boss is worse? What if I have to move? What if I can’t find anything suitable or that will pay me my current salary? We let fear, doubt, and worry keep us from trying new things, looking around to see what’s out there, or venturing out into a new opportunity that may actually prove to be so much better than we ever thought! Let me encourage you not to let fear hold you back. Instead of focusing on the negative what ifs, let’s focus on the positive ones. I’m really good at this, being the eternal optimist I am. What if your new boss is amazing, invested in your growth, and not only appreciates your ideas but implements them? What if your new employer values your input, decisions, and accomplishments? What if the new employer pays you 30-50% more than your current annual salary to do the work you love? What if your career satisfaction increases and you feel more fulfilled when you go to work? What if the decision to leave your current company and accept a new role changes the entire trajectory of your career, causing you to earn more, advance rapidly, contribute at a higher level, and make a bigger impact? Self-doubt is another career suppressor. Don’t let it win. There are employers who will value the skills and abilities that you offer. Do not fall into the trap of believing that you don’t have the right skills, right experience, right number of years of experience, right industry expertise, or that the gap on your resume is too long, you’ve held too many jobs, or are too old. These are not valid reasons to stall your career if your desire is to seek growth and advancement!
