We have the ability to design our lives. 

With that said hearing you talk about the filing system at you bank only makes me feel better about not falling for some expensive design, print, and mail campaign I have 4 bird dogs in the field right now that I guide everyday, this reminds me there is no shortcuts, "no offence Lenard" for hard face to face work.  

They will probably tell you that the header needs to be designed by a structural engineer and design details submitted for review. 

I find they are frequently designed to throw-off a better sphere of light than bulb replacements - which too often have a narrower zone of illumination.

In todays market, a lot of companies are promoting universal design. 

And kudos to the web design team; great interface with the website and the iPhone app. 

It's great because it's got decent turnover and only a few different home designs.

I feel I have a good design sensibility and an appetite for numbers and these can hopefully help me succeed at this!

Most hired hands are going to burn out fast after they have to chew out a misbehaving sub the third or fourth time.Let me give you an idea from my perspective -We are a design build firm and handle projects including plans, design, permit, material logistics, payroll, book-keeping, ground/assembly management, scheduling, rescheduling, vendor management, quality control/assurance, and every other aspect of construction.We typically have about 5 'ground active' jobs, and 5-7 more in the hopper in some phase of planning, design, or permitting.To accomplish this, we have a meager staff of 2 designers (one of whom is a 20 year architectural veteran), a full time office manager, a full time site manager, a helper who splits time between being a carpenter's assistant and a gopher for materials, and someone who does scheduling and material takeoffs.

Most of the other buildings and infrastructure on the island are of more modern design and development.
