I knew it and yes I did, auto program as well.
Nice! Yeah, I went there from 2010 - '14, so I had two years at the old campus and two years at the new TEC. The old place had a lot more charm and I think the learning quality was better there too. Oh well. I'm starting to wonder if the entire school can survive now. I heard enrollment went below 10k this year.

Nice, I graduated in 08 so never got a chance to take classes at the new campus but I have toured it. There was definitely some charm to the old buildings, both good and bad, but the new campus is just light years ahead. What do you think made the learning quality better at the old campus? Interesting comment.

Enrollment is a big concern and I’m hoping they can get the ship righted, would hate to see the school close if it comes to that.

Oh hell yeah. You might know some of my co-workers then. The trouble with the new place in my opinion was that we were finally put under the spotlight. Although we were told that making a mess was okay, it really wasn't. The clean up processes were way too big of a PITA to be worth making a spill. Also, live work was pretty much banned. I don't know about you, but I learned much more trying to diagnose real life issues than I did with rust free cars and planned "bugs".

The old place was very crude, but we got down and dirty. If your car was messed up in a way that was relevant to the class it was ENCOURAGED to bring it in for a repair and discussion. Sure we were a little messy, but it's not like we were dumping oil in the weeds either.

I'm planning to finish up some odds and ends at the house like a wall I haven't painted in 3 years, quarter round on the main floor and paint and install flooring in the upstairs bathrooms. Hopefully the housing market doesn't completely fuck it self in the next 4-6 months so I can get out.

I just went and found mine for 2019 then copy/pasted into this year’s. A few minor tweaks and sent it. Got fucked out of a promotion last year, gonna get fucked out of the same promotion this year. Minimal effort applied. :finger:

They changed the formatting. Fuckers. I actually updated a decent amount of stuff but man why the fuck they gotta do that shit?

Had to phone in for a waste of time meeting. Went fishing for about 4 hours.
Drinking beer and call of duty now :dunno:

Back to work tomorrow.
Been back full time since Monday. A bunch of busy work and the only other guy in the office is working from home because he says his wife is sick. Being bored at work is slightly less shitty than being bored at work I guess. I just happy to still be getting a paycheck.

Found center mounted spare loose, righted; still there.
