my best guess is they needed a reason for Bill to be at the community college so he could report the news to Hank but they couldn't think of a good reason for him to be there


or you could make up some creepy reason like he was adding hair to his collection

It was an early season episode, the characters were still somewhat fluid. Early seasons Bill might play pinball with some unseen friends, later seasons Bill would definitely be collecting the hair of strangers.

For real though. There's a somewhat noticeable dip in quality around season 8-9, then another dip around 11, but 13 is garbage.

The plots, characters, everything is bad. Hell even the animation is bad, they start doing a bunch of things those production "do and do not" slides said not to do.

Sadness covers me like a blanket. Go away, let me die.

A lot of plots revolve around Bobby being impressionable and easily influenced by someone or something and Hank being against them or it, but Hank likes those characteristics of Bobby when he is the influencer!

What I'm saying is that in the long run reinforcing that behavior is going to lead to Bobby being a pretty hosed up adult. That boy ain't right, that man will be worse.

Hank is definitely one of those hard working people who has savings, no debt, old cars, a very low interest home loan, and a responsible budget, who is just one debilitating catastrophic health crisis away from complete and utter penury.

Like oh poo poo I've been building up this savings account since I was 23 years old and now it literally covers only 30% of this one hospital bill I got for trying to stay alive.

You say they can't do that, but they did. That is what happens.

It's a little error in a show that was usually down with continuity and context, but what did you expect?

A happy and together Bill would have been a tough character to love and accept. He's only a good person when he's an object of pity. Any time he gets a hint of power or something he automatically becomes terrible.

Think about his line where he's talking about how he's been on a bunch of juries and every time he was they all did "their duty" which he considers to be a conviction. That's terrifying.

Hank focuses on neatness and tidyness in his personal and professional life and in the spaces around him because his childhood was full of destructive Cotton insanity. Compare and contrast his mother polishing her miniatures collection while Cotton smashed things with Hank polishing his truck out in the garage while Peggy does some crazy poo poo or Bobby does whatever.

Bobby without a doubt owns a restaurant. Think about his meat knowledge and his cooking ability and secret recipes he knows and his indoctrinated reverence for barbecue. If you want, he can have a food truck in Austin and occasionally perform at an open mic night.

He's a really good example of a big American man who has made peace with the actual course of present day America. He can't farm wheat or mine coal but he's somehow turned his bullshit service job into something that gives him dignity, simply because it interacts with two manly things: resource extraction/processing and grilling.
