Out of curiosity, and since this forum is full of ballers, I'm curious if any of you know current or former auditors? Looking to get some information on their professional journey. The auditors I know have left the professional ages ago* and don't want to talk about it (emotional damage?) It's not a field I'm looking to get into but asking out of genuine curiosity. Thanks in advance.

I contacted one of the original owners of RS and got a pdf of the logo… I had a graphic design person clean it up because it was a bit dirty by todays standards… I’m working on quotes now for getting stickers made.
If you’ve got good contacts for this type of sticker let me know, I am thinking people like things a bit more discrete nowadays so I had in mind to reduce the size of the sticker to about 6-7” and have it formatted to reflect that.

Make sure those stickers will not fade when exposed to UV. Don’t cheap out and make some shitty stickers

I wear my lanyard at work. Got spotted once because of it lol. Multiple nurses have noticed it too because their boyfriends (now husbands) used to frequent the forum too. One of them rolled her eyes at me when she first noticed |

If people cant pay 5-10$/sticker, they dont deserve a sticker
Making them isnt free, and shipping isnt either
Not including the time spent in all of the above

Looks like we have some professional chefs or home cooks in this forum. What kind of cookware do you use? I typically cook Asian food, think high heat with a wok. Looking to replace my wok as the coating has wore off. Do I continue to just randomly buy another one at a grocery store or try those hexclads if they are any good.

But needs to properly season it.
The way I do it (new):
1. Turn fire to high, put the new wok on, you'd see it turn blue. Shift around your wok so that every part of your wok went from steel to blue and back. If you don't have gas stove, you can use blow torch.
2. Let it cool down a bit and turn fire to mid. Put a big spoon (like the one for soup) or two of salt in it and stir around the pot.
3. Dump salt, rinse it and then again onto high heat. put big spoon of any veggie oil with high smoking point. I use avocado oil. Then coat it throughout the wok. Dump excess oil and voila. Non-stick wok.
Regular maintenance:
At the end of cooking, I'd wash with regular dishwashing detergent and turn high heat to dry it and apply a coat of oil by spraying some oil and wipe around the cooking surface and back. This way you wok won't rust.
You do this, the non-stickness should work a few weeks if not months depending on how often you cook. When food start sticking, I use steel wire ball to clean off any residual burnt food and do 1-3 again.

If you're going to do a wok do a carbon steel, or cast iron for electric (flat thick base = build up a lot of heat).

It’s from hundreds of small ridges. They are honestly pretty magical.
