Question:

Is there any polite way to &fire& this person?

I just hired someone only to find someone much more qualified a few days later. There's no way I could have both on staff. Since the position is for an independent contractor with us, I'm under no professional obligation to keep him on staff. On a personal level though, I feel horrible for firing someone after he just started only because I found someone more qualified. To make matters worse, I went to high school with the first guy I hired. We were never friends and I hired him completely based on his experience, but I still feel somewhat obligated to keep him on board. What do you think? This new guy is amazing, has amazing experience and is exactly what I've been looking for to fill this position. I couldn't have asked for anyone better. Is there any polite way I could do this? I know I'm horrible, but I have to think of who is going to be better for the business. What do you think? Like I said before, there is absolutely no way to put both on staff.

Answer:

you can contact nearest county engineer's office and ask for locations. Also, local Fire Department employees would be helpful, as they NEED to know where all hydrants are.
To magnetize metal all you need is electric current, finding the right voltage, amps and ohms would be the only thing you need to find out. You know like when they make electro-magnets (like the cranes at the junk-yards) . if you ran the current long enough for the molecules in the metal to become polarized it would become a electromagnet. staying polorized would be your problem because you would loose the charge when you switched off the juice because of impurities in the metal. Theorocitally if you ran the current through long enough, they would just stay polorized because they are shocked into place. (ever notice if you hit an iron nail with a hammer it gets magnetized from the shock?) but iron (fe) is easily magnetized from the structure of it's molecules.
