It's my last semester here, and sure enough, I have once again managed to get assigned to the dumbest human beings, that will still somehow earn a degree, in all of my classes, with one exception. One dude is actually pretty smart and shows engagement, we've established a pretty good rapport and do the majority of the strategic decision while the two chicks in our team plan how to get lit and laid, and one dude just tries to consume oxygen without incurring bodily harm. Fun.

Accounting is a pretty decent program to get into as far as job prospects and median income out of college go. It's just a lot of information to retain and a lot of nuances. I would probably have a 4.73927473937 GPA if I was doing some liberal arts poo poo and just spent my days writing papers.

It goons, how hard was it to get your MTA? One of the degree programs I am looking at has that as a requirement. The CG has an online sudy guide and I am nine chapters in and it apears to be computers for dummies with some bits about powershell thrown in. Im not sure how to word what im asking, basicly whats involved? Im a diesel mechanic by trade and have not messed with computers much since high school other than building rigs for gaming.

I just finished some auditing homework that I legit thought would take me several hours but only took me maybe ten minutes. Now I'm thinking I hosed it up royally. And this happens every time an assignment seems easy.

Yeah, fairly often. The terrible thing is that sometimes that gut feeling turns out to be right and sometimes it's not. I can't tell.

i have a professor who loves to give backhanded compliments. i'm not sure she realizes that they are backhanded and i am 100% sure she means well, but telling me "i really admire someone coming back to school when they are almost 30" is both a compliment and a reminder that i'm almost loving 30.

I have a really cool expository writing professor who is a super liberal/borderline communist, extremely pro-troops, and anti-war. 1/3rd of the class has dropped because she stresses the poor new college students out by just bluntly telling them when they're writing like garbage. She just insults the poo poo out of anyone who doesn't keep up on day to day current events, and people who shirk their public duties like voting, jury duty, etc. also get the verbal slam down. I've not had a lot of college classes, but I'm willing to say it is probably one of the best classes that I will ever end up paying for just for the fact that she takes poo poo from no one, isn't afraid to hurt feelings, and actually gives very specific critique for any mistakes that are made.

I think I lucked out on professors this semester. Today my friend was bitching about her orgo professor, and everything I've heard about him so far leads me to believe that he's got each and every one of his students on his poo poo list. The professor who was giving my first exam today brought in donut holes. No complaints from me!

You got a problem with that you can suck my dick. I like slow and gentle with a build up to fast and hard. No teeth. Edit: the other vape is meh. I don't need nicotine or whatever. However, I can make my own THC ejuice and have a box mod so people think I'm a tool already.

You know, as negative as I am about my class mates, some of them are really cool people that will eventually grow into wonderful functioning adults. I had lunch with two of my friends-who-are-girls this afternoon. I offered advice on finding a good lease and lent my ear to gossip about boys. It was really enjoyable and I wish I took more time to get to know the people around me. One kid in my lab was really stressed about general life stuff so we shared a cigarette and just talked for a while outside. Tears were shed and hugs were given. It's just been a really nice enriching day. ... I also use robococks for weed exclusively.

If you aren't turning that vaped weed into edibles after you are missing out. It's like using it twice which is really helpful and cost efficient.

My only positive experience with another vet in undergrad was in a National Security Policy 100ish class where the final was basically NatSec D&D. He rolled President, I was his National Security Advisor and the loudmouth armchair leftist who dominated classroom discussion was SecState. He took great care to let State drone on for the observing professor before cutting him off with a curt "Noted. Let's bomb them." I presume the professor gave as a little of a shot about the elective as we did because we still got As after invading Vietnam, Iran and British Columbia.

There's a vet in one of my classes that has: CADPAT wallet (the kind with loud velcro), tactical binder case with waterproof paper, 24 hour pack (with pouches on the MOLLE) for his schoolbag, and patches of all kinds on everything. It reminds me of the Gear Queer thread we had here.

Just took a test in my business calc class where my teacher used me for a problem dealing with interest rates and solving for monthly payments. Test version of me bought a house at a high rate and huge mortgage payments as a result. After solving I wrote that he should've had me buying a Camaro instead. Edit: he knows I'm a vet because we talked about my dick art book after class one day.

Hell yea, today had an uncomfortable confrontation with another vet who was screaming people are pussies and that all Mexicans are criminals, Arabs make him uncomfortable and he wishes he was back where he could just just kill them, and a bunch of other real lovely stuff backed up by "if you weren't over there you don't know". Professors intervened and he apologized, one professor is still reporting the incident to the dean of his program. What program is he in, you ask? Why, criminal justice, of course.

Guy was acting like a total dick, but I feel really bad for him. Hope he can adjust. Unless of course he's one of those guys who never deployed/did poo poo and uses his military experience to justify his hate. gently caress those guys.
