AEChat

Welcome to AEChat! Join Jeff (Electrical Engineer) and Joe (Architect) as they delve into discussions about the Design/Build Industry. We've got it all: from sustainability to standardization, code to conflict, prison dorms to gothic architectural monstrosities, there's always a chance for a quick chat.

Episode 7: The Resignation Deliberation

There comes a time when expectations and reality hit an impasse. One firm doesn't meet expectations, one employee doesn't quite work out, one situation just goes off the rails. Ultimately, lack of communication and/or action towards a resolution lead to a massive dropoff in motivation, which leads to those dreaded words: "I Quit".  On that note, we both quit. Sorry that's it. We're done.  Why? Let's Chat.

Episode 6: Idioms for Idiots

Let's pump the brakes and circle back on this one, we need to touch base on this bear of a job and try to avoid bringing water to the ocean, and let's not run on rubber time here.  What the heck does any of that mean? Let's chat

Episode 5: Money Monet

In engineering and construction, the costs are one of three core project constraints which impact the overall quality of a project. People assess costs in terms of the here-and-now, but what brought us to this point? How have construction/project costs evolved over time? With a potential looming recession, are we heading for a market markup or construction collapse?  Who knows, but let's chat. Get Money Get Money Get Money

Episode 4: Software Goes Soft

On this episode of AEChat, Jeff and Joe discuss all forms of software and where the industry as a whole is headed. We also oddly enough explore the differences between commercial real estate and single-family, all while trying to stay on topic for a solid 80 minutes or so.

Episode 3: Meant to Mentor

What does it mean to be a mentor? Why do people mentor? Why are we asking questions instead of diving into this episode? No idea, let's chat.

Episode 2: Failing to Fail

We all fail.  Regardless of whether we admit it, we all experience failure in some shape, but what is failure? How do we define it? What is the biggest failure? Join us as we discuss failures as we define them and what it means as a whole for anyone to fail.
