You have a very bad memory, I have corrected your maths equations on more than one occassion. In fact I think they are so bad, You shouldnt even call yourself a civil engineering apprentice. Just call yourself a beginner. I am helping you.

Again, stop assuming.

In canada apprentice :a graduate currently under the supervision of a senior professional engineer (salary ok), for experience purposes. lasts 2-4 years- after which he can obtain his own P.eng designation and have more responsibilities

This is civil btw

Youre not in canada. So stop assuming.

Thats why I said the UK. If you have been to university, ask for the money back. They robbed you! Your maths isnt good enough to be an engineer. FACT.

This is not a hard concept to grasp. If someone asks me where I'm from, I reply Oklahoma, however I was born in Kansas. I fail to see the problem with your response.

Okay, if you were to move to England and stay there for a few years, and someone asked where you from. Your response would most likely be I am American, but I live in England. You would not say you from England because your accent would be a give away.Right?

Listen, i spent about seven to eight years in south africa. Most of my late childhood was partly there and my teenage years until around 15-16 when i matriculated from a school in pietersburg.

My citizenship status: South Africa, Congo( Zaire), Canada.

If i go to england right now, id tell them im from CANADA (best believe that)



Anyways...

Movin on...*singing*

No, I would tell them London, or wherever my permanent residence was at the time. To me 'from' = current place of residence. If they asked me where I was born, obviously I'd tell them Kansas in the US.

Sorry, I think most people would say that if they were asked: Where do you live, rather than where are from.

Perhaps in the UK, but I think it's very common to ask 'where are you from' in the US and the answer is most often going to be wherever they currently reside, or they would clarify with something like 'I'm from Oklahoma, but originally lived in Kansas'.

But I'm talking about countries, not cities. When asking about where they are from, they will more than likely tell you their country of origin, and then where they currently reside. Like for example, I am from Swaziland, but I have been brought in the UK. I always mention my country of origin, because usually the next question is were you born here...

Well obviously if someone asked me specifically 'what country are you from', and I'm in the UK and obviously have no accent, I would just assume they meant originally and I'd respond the US. However if all someone asked me was 'where are you from', I would always answer my current place of residence.
