    Yeah, it would be manageable depending on how labs are ran. Labs usually require 3 hour time slots but sometimes only last an hour. That is doable, but if I get labs that use all 3 hours plus the required lab reports as homework...well then I get in over my head. I have 2 - 2.5 years of my gi bill left and I am thinking I should just lower my workload and maybe retake a class or two to bump my GPA into the 3.0-3.5 range.

    I am sitting at a 2.9 due to the first few years I was getting situated. I want a 3.0 + to keep grad school open. After talking to several advisors over the summer it is becoming more of a reality. I still plan on taking the wardens exam and applying for fisheries jobs first.

    In my job after hiring me they said they don't hire anyone with above a 3.0. They said they wanted people with street smarts and social skills. Not a book worm without common sense.

    A 3.0 + is for grad school. I am not worried about not getting hired. I forget what your degree is in but each job requires a different type of person. My current job doesn't require a highly intelligent person but being handy is a must. My boss hires based off experience and interviews.

    haha yes, if we can ever find a time to make it work :D.

    Nope, thats when I finally get a real job :D

    What were you planning this weekend? I could do the install this weekend, the next few im booked. I want to head to Wiggins fork area and slay some cuthroat too which would be fun if u wanted to join! It's south of Dubois up the east fork. Cool spot that not many people go to.

    He wanted to go camp/wheel/fish/gold pan in the snowys but it sounded like it wasn't happening anymore.

    I'll discuss it and get back to you tomorrow. My weekends are probably booked through September for elk season but I want to get out to the river around October November for some prime fishing before it freezes over.

    So the trip to the snowys is still happening. Some other people were invited and really want to go. If you want to camp when it gets colder I'd be down to come out your way.

    Haha. If I wanted them gone I'd have sold em on here a while ago. I was hoping to help with the install and an alignment :)

    Glad you guys are getting out! Good luck :)

    That sucks. Ruining tires because of the alignment is the worst way to burn em up! Ordered toe plates today actually so I can get it closer.
