    I only got 3 hours of sleep last night because i was so excited to watch a movie after i got everything hooked up lol

    luckily you've learned most of the processes at this point, and now it's going to start becoming how to apply it. i actually thought calc 2 was the hardest to pick up out of everything.

    having to search high and low for a job sucks even more :p

    I took cal 2 twice, got a D the first time got an A the second time.
    And yes finding a job is terrible for business mayors. My brother in law got a business management degree graduated with like a 3.8 and couldn't find a job and is now finishing his masters at embry riddle for ME and already has a job offer from OXY

    You have to get a degree that has a large need. Finance is good but she'll probably never use that child psychology degree

    Yep. Then there was the whole argument where she said "if you do something you love you never work a day in your life" Well that's just great but you are a sales rep, so stfu.

    I get a pretty hefty discount and their fittings are still expensive as #$%@, when I get the chance I get Hoke over Swagelok but I will say Swagelok is a lot better made.

    What am I saying, I have never paid for a fitting, I get them from work lol.
