Networking and More

Have a terrific weekend. Enjoy the last Friday in July. This kicks off 100th Coast Guard Festival for Grand Haven, MI. It goes all week long. Parade of Ships is Monday @ 1:00 pm. Looking forward to hangout out with family next week Saturday and then watching the fireworks at night.   Honey dew list this weekend. Be blessed.       A mathematician had to move to a new place.   His wife didn't trust him very much, so when they stood down on the street with all their things, she asked him to watch their ten trunks, while she got a taxi.   Some minutes later she returned.   Said the husband: "I thought you said there were ten trunks, but I've only counted to nine."   The wife said: "No, they're TEN!"   "But I have counted them: 0, 1, 2, ..."

Hi, I am an Windchill implementer and admin, dabbling in Creo tools and looking at future technology. It seems that there isn't a UK user group, or at least one that I can find easily. Would anyone be interested in helping me set up such a community?   Greg

Company heading home today. Time to get back in the groove of summer. Have a blessed weekend. Hug the ones you love. Time together is precious.       Why won’t Goldilocks drink a glass of water with 8 pieces of ice in it?   Because it’s too cubed.

Godspeed to you Corey, Hero to your family and Hero to your community.  A full and moral life, taken too soon.  You will be missed...😢   Best wishes to the former President and those others injured on a fast, and full recovery.

Several families get togethers this weekend - family in from Houston, from Kentucky and from South Carolina.    4 1/2 (5) quart pails of blueberries picked last night. Blueberries on my Rice Chex for breakfast this morning. I see my favorite no bake blueberry pie in my future!       The “H” in ENGINEERING stands for Happiness!

For those in the US, stay safe and enjoy your Independence Day celebrations.     Husband to Wife about the purchase of fireworks:   It’s not just setting money on fire…   … it explodes too!!!

Hope you have a great weekend. For some it's the beginning of the Independence Day Holiday week. If that is you, enjoy your time off. Be safe.   The days are starting to get shorter in the north. On evening walks with my wife I enjoy the beautiful sky colors in the evening. Bright and brilliant fading into calm midnight blues.     Chemist: Hey, CE look at this cool pop I get when I forget to cool this mixture ....   Chemical Eng: OH NO!!!!   RUN!!!!

Be blessed on this first full day of summer. Yesterday at 4:50 p.m. EDT the sun started it's long journey south again. Any big plans for the summer? Staying cool? (Heat wave in the northwest US)     What do you get when you cross a mosquito with a mountain climber?   Nothing! You can't cross a vector with a scalar.

Have a great weekend. Enjoy time with your father if you get the chance (Father's day this Sunday in the States). Be blessed. Maybe even share a dad joke or two... if they laugh, it may not be with you, but at you.  🙂       I was wondering why music was coming from my printer….     Apparently, it was jamming.

Hello to all of you! I need some guidance because my career in development is at a junction. I want to create a mobile application that runs on both Android and iOS, but I'm not sure if I should concentrate on front-end, back-end, or full stack development. I also want to decide which programming language is best for creating cross-platform applications. Flutter, React Native, and native programming are some of the possibilities that I've heard about. I went through this article and gained some knowledge but still I have few concerns over which one would offer bright future. I would be grateful for any first-hand experience or guidance from those who have developed cross-platform mobile apps. Thank you in advance for your insights!

Have a blessed weekend. 

Do you ever have mornings (or weeks) where your work takes a left turn 5 minutes into the day? Embrace the opportunities... Be blessed.   You might be an engineer if:   You window shop at Radio Shack. (You’re old engineer if you remember Raido Shack)   You've already calculated how much you make per second.   You've tried to repair a $5 radio.  

Have a great weekend. Mixed weather here this weekend. Join us for Breakfast at the Beach on Memorial Day. 9:00 am by the channel, Holland State Park. https://www.michigandnr.com/parksandtrails/details.aspx?id=458&type=SPRK   What are you plans this weekend. (Long weekend in the States.)     You might be an engineer if:   You look forward to Christmas, so you can put together the kids' toys. You think that people yawning around you are sleep deprived. You see a good design, and have to change it. You spent more on your calculator than you did on your wedding ring.

Sketchup has been OK to work with, but Qualcomm has some kind of license for Creo, so I'm asking IT to get me going here.

Half way through May. Where is 2024 going? Enjoy time with the ones you love this weekend. Did you do anything special for your mother last weekend?       You might be an engineer if:   You can quote lines from any Monty Python movie.   You sit backwards on Disney rides so you can see how they do the special effects.   You have saved every power cord from all your broken appliances.   You know what http:// stands for.

I've got a bunch of splitting to do this weekend. What's on your to do list? (Or honeydew list?)     You might be an engineer if:   You take a cruise so you can go on a personal tour of the engine room.   In college, you thought Spring Break was metal fatigue failure.   The salespeople at the local computer store can't answer any of your questions.   At an air show, you know how fast the skydivers are falling.

March brought something special to PTC Seaport Headquarters Boston. In honor of National Working Mom's Day, March 12th, this online community manager trekked into the city with my 15 year old son to be a spectator/helper for the BRUG (PTC/USER Boston Regional User Group) kick-off meeting.  The event was spearheaded by the new PTC/USER Regional User Group leader, @MichaelBourque, a dedicated Creo advocate. Over fifty PTC software users gathered on the 17th floor, rejuvenating the Boston Regional User Group (BRUG).   GROUP PHOTO!!     The event kicked off with Michael Bourque sharing his journey with Creo, recounting his days at PTC where he contributed to developing early versions like Wildfire. Beyond his own story, Bourque engaged the audience, seeking input on future BRUG meeting topics, focusing on the impact of PTC products.   Our discussion broadened with contributions from other PTC Community members like @ScottMorris , @sdurukkar @michaelbanus

What your plans for "Star Wars" days (May the 4th be with you)!!!   Have a great weekend. Hug the ones you love. Be blessed.       Why do computer programmers and engineers prefer their devices in dark mode?   Because light attracts bugs.

Have a blessed day!!! Especially if you are @Jaime_Lee (who is having an extra special day today... if you know what I mean... another trip around the sun completed, eh?)   Won free lawn service at our home and garden show this year.... mowing for the 3rd time already here in Michigan this afternoon.     If it looks stupid, but works Then it ain't stupid (and you can say "trust me, I'm an engineer")

Looks like a nice but chilly weekend. Chance of frost Sunday morning. What can you do to brightened someone's day today.     How do you tell the difference between a newbie and an expert?   The newbie says, "What’s it doing?"   The expert says, "It's doing it again!"  

Have a terrific weekend. Get outside and enjoy sometime in creation.       I’m struggling with math today.   Fifteen plus fifteen is thirty,   But   Sixteen plus sixteen is thirty too.

We are looking to add a CAD Admin/Support person sometime soon. Does anyone any thoughts on what we should be looking for? Is anyone out there looking?Off the top of my head, requirements that come to mind are:CAD Support, mostly Creo, some Solidworks (95% Creo)Windchill user support (not administration).Process and documentation support.Must be a problem solver with attention to detail.Ability to see what needs to be done and do it, see what needs to be fixed and fix itThis position will most likely be onsite in Lafayette, CO.We have users who would be really good at all of this, however, they want to be real Development engineers, not CAD Support engineers. We need to find someone who wants to be a CAD Admin & Support Engineer.  

Hi, PTC Enthusiasts,     Today is International Pets Day!   I thought I would share something fun we are doing here at PTC today!  We are launching a PETS MicroCommunity! We were encouraged to change our internal Teams avatar for the occasion.  If you have been on this PTC Cooler any amount of time, you know how much I love my Maple!   We, at the PTC Community, are going to stay "Support Community," but for today (or rest of the week or month...whatever gets your tail wagging 😉 why don't we switch our avatar to commemorate our love of our pets!   Calling all cute pet photos too as a reply to this post!
