1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

The league is genius. Should watch some more of it.

We had a kid on the robot team who always had a tactical vest on, and there was one pocket that always contained a single raw russet potato.

 

Never underestimate your ability to fuck with other people's heads using a single potato

 

You forgot the lack of support from admin, teachers that don't want to fulfill contracted obligations saying it's "extra work", skipping state-law required meetings, and broken processes where standard procedure isn't being followed due to lack of training.

My wife's in the middle of fixing an entire elementary school because they're having trouble with a small caseload of approx. 20 special ed students...for the entire school.

 

You had something to say about my engine bay

 

Truck is in the shop getting the rest of the exhaust put on, NO MORE STRAIGHT HEADER 22RE!

 

I believe it. Seems really hit or miss on the public school side, and the private school side is struggling with money. Costs have skyrocketed, so people want/need more takehome pay, but raising costs for the care of the kids doesn't seem to be an option. So teachers and staff are quitting, leaving the remaining ones more stressed out. Its a feedback loop.

 

On the plus side, my wife has been receiving extra stipends; she even volunteered to sign up for an at-home thing 3 days a week for a preschooler.

She goes, after a regular work day, and spends 30-45 mins with a child that's on a ventilator or something. Child has an in-home nurse too...forgot what the child's condition is exactly.

 

I'm IT for a large school district. I have public school nighmares

 

I believe it.

You probably get the stupidest questions/calls




My wife said this teacher didn't know how to connect a soundbar; I told her to mention to the teacher the square in a circular hole toy

Cause the lady had the appropriate cables, and tv connections, and just had to run an optical cable for sound.

 

Is it one of the ones that has an ipad or chromebook for each kid? IT when I was a kid was 20 computer in a lab connected only by a 20 port parallel printer switch, but it sounds much worse now.

 

Polio all over again.

 

@Speedytech7

will a step bit really be that much of an improvement versus what im doing? Just not trying throw another 10 15 bucks in the trash if i can continue with brute strength and time.

 

i only got one more hole done yesterday between 2 batteries for reference lolol

 

HF bits

 

cant be worse than the skil bits im using from lowes. Only managed to snap 3 of em so far

 

Oh yeah

 

She's too damn sweet; she wants to help every kid she can

 

still have 1 of 4 holes to tap on one bed stiffener, plus a hole nother one to tap out for my bolts.


Not to mention i rounded out the end of one yesterday, need to see if its recoverable or a lost cause that steel @Kwikvette used is no joke

 

Well the step bit won’t snap for sure, I’d probably still a little pilot hole or something.
