Titan Tim Tackling his Twenties

Welp, got an internship for the spring, everything worked out!!! I’m steel winning!!

New Goals:

  • I want more experience in construction surveying and layout
  • Work for an electrical subcontractor
  • Work for an HVAC subcontractor
  • Work for a plumbing subcontractor
  • Work for concrete subcontractor
  • Maybe get experience working as a construction materials technician

I don’t think I can complete all of those before I graduate I will try though.
To be honest I don’t want to go straight to work after graduating in 2024. I’d like to venture out with internship experiences then work for a Big General Contractor (unless I change my mind). There’s just a voice in the back of my head telling me “You need job immediately to pay off student loans ,so there is a bit of pressure, but I refuse to set myself up for mediocrity.

The puns are finally spreading!

Awesome job Tim, congrats on the internship! I hope you learn and experience everything you want from it.

The company I work for is both, maybe you could combine for maximum efficiency?

Week of absolutely no training is over, such a lovely break, but its time to get back to work.

I weigh 207.6 lbs, love to see the downwards trend.

I’m excited for this winter break. I’m going to expand my cooking skills! I want to cook lamb, pork, and different cuts of beef.

I must learn how to cook ribs.

I am not going to do this, but what if I made a dish called chili of the gods:

It’s chili made ground beef, chicken, ground pork, lamb, and bacon.

maybe a serving of bacon bits as the garnish.

real bacon will mess up the macros.

I’d swap the beef out for bison/buffalo, and chicken for dark meat turkey. You’re doubled up on pork with the ground pork and the bacon: maybe some goat instead of pork. Although that’s becoming a bit more in the stew realm.

Hell yeah on ribs. Get some beef ones.

Others will probably give plenty of “western recipes” so I thought I’d jump in with something different

Teriyaki

  1. preheat oven to 305F. put ribs in a baking pan
  2. mix sugar free teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil in a 4:2:1 ratio. pour evenly over ribs
  3. cover pan with foil and bake for 2-3 hrs or until tender
  4. uncover the pan and bake for an additional 10-15 min to get a bit of a crust (doesn’t work as well if using sugar free

if you get spareribs, red braising is also an option, but I’m guessing you don’t have a wok.

If you have a pressure cooker, you could also steam the ribs

  1. Salt the ribs and put in a bowl. Mix cooking wine and soy sauce in a 1:2 ratio and pour over ribs. slice ginger and put on top
  2. put bowl in pressure cooker and cook for 30-40 min

This is really great anna! Definitely adding that Teriyaki to my list of things to cook. My intent was to use a oven.

Came home to my parent’s house today, immediately after that I went shopping.

These are pork ribs (which you can probably tell cause I don’t know jack), I couldn’t find beef ones.

I am proud of myself and can’t wait to use @anna_5588 ‘s recipe on the second rack I got in the freezer.

let me know how it goes!

Although, it does work better when you have ribs like these
