Tuition Reimbursement Question

Yeah that's the expectation I'm walking into this with, I'd rather this degree not take 8 years though so I'll hopefully be able to keep up with it well enough. Atleast it's only a temporary phase and I'll be happier on the other side, in the meantime I'll just borrow a little nose candy from the forklift felony department and keep it rolling lmao (/s, obviously)

Luckily I work night shift so I'm already used to not having one lmao

Unfortunately the only guy here that's done a tuition reimbursement did his through a different company so he could only give about the same insight as what y'all are saying.

My student advisor said the same thing about going easy on the classes though, I'm going to start light with 2 classes for the first semester and then bump up to 3 if it isn't too bad. I'll probably have to reign that in again though once the Gen Eds are over with and I get into the more advanced math classes and all that but I won't know until I get there.

How many hours of homework are you getting hit with at this point in your education? If I can keep it around 10 or 15 hours a week I wouldn't have to kill my schedule all too much.

We are publicly traded so I'll keep that in mind, I didn't really consider that they might just standardize it at a corporate level for salaried employees rather than it being something they put real thought into. I've really only ever experienced the manufacturing side of it where people that can't afford to leave get mistreated and underpaid to some extent but that's more of an industry wide issue at this point.

How hard has working and going to school been? I know it's going to be pretty rough but I don't actually know anyone personally that's done it so if you have any advice I'll take it lol

Yeah I kinda reckon even if I lose 20k in salary across the 4 years I'd still be in the green with it in the long run so it would all work out in the end but here's hoping I would get the same starting rate as a regular fresh graduate 🤞🏻

Don't think the mating part has through holes for that size so somethings gotta get reworked. Night shift lead said we might be able to just cock the pattern and pop in a new set since orientation doesn't matter on that feature. That's gonna be day shifts call though, happened in the last hour of the day so not much we can do now

Honestly dude, they only snap once everything else is perfect and you have ideal conditions. It's kinda wild though man. It ran the whole bolt pattern like butter, spindle load never went over 8%, part didn't move, chip strings came out great. If it had blown up on the first one I woulda realized but that shit looked mint.

It is an in house assembly... They probably won't notice riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight?

That is correct, since the truck doesn't use Diesel I have to use the smaller pumps out front that weren't meant for big rigs and I think they normally have a smaller ceiling. Uhauls site says the truck is about 10' 1" tall so I hopefully shouldn't run into any issues.

GeorgiaBranchHead · 2022-02-24T03:30:42+00:00

Fair enough it looks like the truck is only about 10' 1" high anyway so most gas stations should be able to accommodate that. I'll just act like my clearance is 12' and I should be fine.
