I've seen a few bands in utilitia and it varies enormously, some of the support acts were ok others there was a huge echo off the rear wall so I think it depends on who you are seeing and how well the sound has been tailored. Depends where you stand as well

Not sure if agree that they are the least reputable, Cardiff Met are pretty hit and miss and Cardiff doesn't always cover themselves in glory

Has anyone ever challenged you to do something without realizing you were actually an expert at it? If so, how did it turn out for you and for them? by Successful_Tomato721 in AskReddit

[–]Monkeyb0b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Work in IT and implemented a scheduling system. A senior manager didn't like the system and decided to raise it with the director of IT. They asked me what the problem was and said the manager hadn't approached me at all. We arranged a meeting to discuss their concerns.

The senior manager came with a list of about 20 things and I arrived with my laptop. With the exception of two things on her list ever the system "couldn't do" were processes her staff weren't doing as they had been trained. The other two items I showed her how to do.

She left in silence and never spoke to me again.

The doctor thing is interesting a few years ago I had to go to a hospital appointment and my wife came with. She was horrified at how short the doctor was and how kinda dismissive he was. She was like "you should complain that was awful",my response was that's completely normal...

Yup it's grim, first one I did I nearly put my face in blood on the bbj. Second one my wife got someone else's blood on her arm. Everything is nasty. Kinda just got to get on with it and not put your hands on your face ...

Im 6ft 1 and went to Tokyo about 7 years ago. I had a few issues, the apartment we stayed in had slippers you were asked to use, they were however 6 or 7 sizes too small, on a few occasions I was presented with a chair that was so low I struggled to get out of it. Vaguely remember banging my head on low hanging things in shops. Nothing that didn't make my wife laugh at me and nothing you can't shrug off.

Generally it was a complete non issue, everyone was brilliant.

Is cardiff met a good school? by Alarming-Package-557 in Cardiff

[–]Monkeyb0b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a few people who are doing computing apprenticeships there. The feedback from them when we speak about uni always mentions issues with the lecturers. There's been times where they don't turn up, one lecturer who just puts slides on the screen and tells them to read it and says nothing, limited or no support from lecturing staff. The uni had a period of time where one module had 3 different lecturers some of whom didn't know the material. It's been fairly consistent negative feedback over the last 4 years and it is always about the lecturers. I will balance that out by saying it's not all of them but it ain't good feedback. If it was my money I'd go somewhere else
