About as long as is required to get a foam line set up. Most competent rescue companies should be able to have a foam line operational in well under two minutes from arrival if they have good access to the pool. Once the line is operational the bulk of the fire can be knocked down within 30 seconds or so. To make sure you get a nice solid blanket of foam to prevent reignition will probably take another minute or so. In total it should take about five minutes give or take.Of course something like an airport crash tender which is specifically set up to deal with this type of scenario should be able to use only one operator and get the fire under control in signNowly less time than that.

I've been coming across this kind of questions from last a few days. So as a resident of Assam, I've felt obliged to answer this.No one, whether it is AASU or any other organisation, has said even a single word against Indian Bengalis, who or whose ancestors had been living in Assam till 24th of March, 1971.But, having said that, we strongly oppose the granting of citizenship to the people from Bangladesh who have migrated to India after 25th March 1971, whether they are Hindu or Muslim.We are opposing this staying within the limit of the Constitution of India.According to the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 1985,All persons of Indian Origin who came to Assam before 1st January 1966 from Bangladesh and who have been ordinarily resident of Assam since the date of their entry into Assam shall be deemed to be citizens of India as from the 1st January 1966.Every person of Indian Origin who came to Assam on or after the 1st January, 1966 but before the 25th March, 1971 from Bangladesh and who has been ordinarily resident of Assam since the date of his entry into Assam and who has been detected to be the foreigner shall registere himself. Such registered person shall be deemed to be a citizen of India for all purposes as from the date of expiry of period of 10 years from the date of detecsion as a foreigner. But, in the intervening period of 10 years, he shall have the same rights and obligations as a citizens of India, excepting the right to vote.We love Indian Bengalis as our own brothers and sisters. But, we would not allow any kind of immigrants from Bangladesh, whether they are Hindu or muslims, into Assam to become a citizen of India from the state of Assam as it will bring a great threat to the indigenous culture and language of Assam.(For example, you may go through the history and the change in demographic structure in Tripura, and how the indigenous Tripuri tribals had lost their political dominance in their own state which they had been ruling till their union with India, even though they share the same religion with the immigrants)

Hi,This is a purely subjective area of employment. Whether you quit or were fired will be looked at through the personal lense of the next hiring manager, and will be influenced by the assessments they use to determine abilities.Like you said, "People join companies, and leave managers." Knowledgeable HR people know that 80% of job satisfaction is based on the manager. Good people often don't want to work for a bad manager, so they quit. Bad managers sometimes get people fired for personal reasons. The world is not fair.The better HR people will look for information to determine your likelihood of success in their organization and this, if they are any good, will include assessments, a reference check, and a call to someone where you previously worked. They won't get too much information about any negative details in the US of A, but in other cultures they may get an ear full. My thinking is be loyal to yourself first and to your organization second. If you are not being treated well, then quit. You you get fired for the wrong reasons, demonstrate competence for your next employer. If you are just a horrible person, identify your faults and fix them.Best regards,Bob

This is not true. There is no GATE program in Palo Alto. A lot of children are smart and I believe an IQ of 130+ (giftedness level) is not rare in the area. However, it's not the case that the higher IQ means that you will stand out positively. Even in Silicon Valley, an IQ of 155 is not typical and it doesn't guarantee success in school. An IQ of over 145 actually can make it difficult for a child to succeed in the mainstream curriculum.At the elementary level, the public school curriculum in Palo Alto, despite being ranked the No.1 school district in California, is not designed to be competitive. Hence, it's unlikely that a smart child will stand out or be in a good spotlight here. The public school teachers don't care about intelligence or hard work in the lower grades, but they care more about collaboration and social skills. So, anyone can stand out, regardless of his/her IQ.

Current employees: as many of them as you can talk to.Many other answers here mention how much startups can change as they learn and grow. Talking to current employees gives you the best sense of how things work now, not when the company was a fraction of the size it is now.Plus, because joining and staying at a startup means a great mutual fit -- it's not unlike a real, personal relationship -- both company and employee have to believe in each other, work well together, etc. Just as you wouldn't make a full conclusion based on one ex's thoughts, there are always multiple sides. At least talk to multiple former employees in case you run into one who was let go (it's usually not obvious).Finally, talking to as many employees as you can helps you:Gain perspectives, not just from HR or recruiting or hiring managers, but those on the ground from different parts of the company.Meet more people within the company. At a startup, you might be able to talk to 50-100% of all the employees. Everyone will have a slightly different experience, but core parts of how the company works should be clear. If you can't find consistent values and purpose, then that itself might be a red flag. Otherwise you can get a pretty good sense of (1) the company, and (2) whether you'll enjoy working there through these conversations.Few companies actively recruiting you would not be happy to set up as many of these meetings as you'd want to make your decision.
