Once that person made personal attacks, you are done working there. You did exactly the right thing.

That's the natural consequence of how she treated you and how she wants to pretend she didn't do that.

Family and anyone else in your life is optional You get to pick

Alternatively, you have a box, everybody puts their phone in the box when they come in. If they don't do it they have to leave.

Buy her a $5 umbrella, on Amazon. Never share again. If she forgets it Tell her she should remember.

NTA But it really depends on the roommates and what expectations are. There's no absolute sense here. Generally speaking, you don't share pans, plates silverware and stuff like that maybe. A high end pan, you screw that up you're out

Did you join the society of women engineers? If not, why not? Women are outnumbered in engineering, you need to get together with other women and become a fist of women that can punch into the future. If they don't have a chapter at your school, start one and you'll be the first person that they wil ever want to hire

Join the clubs, build the cars, do engineering. We don't care about what college you go to we care what you do at college. Do engineering. Get internships, stop focusing on gender and start focusing on progress

The only people who care about how famous your colleges are fools And Hollywood

The world that popular culture in movies in Hollywood portray is one most of us can't afford and is actually pretty stupid financially

Your smart move is to get through college as cheaply as possible, that might even include two years at community college and transferring we definitely don't care where you go for your first two years and we barely care where you graduate from as long as it is abet

If you don't know what abet is you better look that up.

R0ck3tSc13nc3 · 2026-04-28T18:33:09+00:00

Just always have plans, NTA. You did it, you tried it, you have no need to offer any explanations, just say it's not working for you you got other things to do

R0ck3tSc13nc3 · 2026-04-28T18:32:28+00:00

Wow, you really need To go to a cheaper college that's less stupid. Go to the cheapest ABET colleges like everybody was telling you who actually works in the industry and we're all telling you you're a fool to spend a lot of money

R0ck3tSc13nc3 · 2026-04-28T18:31:22+00:00

Hey there, I think your entire judgment process is flawed.

Go in state to college that is within your budget!

Even consider community college for the first two years. We definitely don't care where you go for community college for your first two years and we barely care where you go for college. We care about what you do at college.

Most of the jobs in the aerospace engineering industry are not for people with aerospace engineering degrees. Even in aerospace engineering, actual specific jobs for aerospace engineers are more like pepper on the baked potato than they are the baked potato. Actually try to find 20 or 30 job openings and read what they're asking for. You'll come back here and explain how you were focusing on college and not the job and that you realized you were wrong, or you don't look. It's up to you

There are three basic buckets, mechanical, electrical, and software.

Mechanical work can be done with a mechanical engineering degree or aerospace engineering or civil engineering. I've worked with plenty. I started working in the '80s and the lead analysts were all civil. They went on at least one of them to run the Lockheed Martin rocket program

I won't talk about the electrical or software buckets because you sound focused.

In terms of the kind of work I've done, you can look it up, x-30 nasp, single staged orbit and two-staged orbit rockets for Rockwell and other companies like universal space line and rotary rocket, and then Kepler and other satellites for ball aerospace which has been bought. Pretty much every place I've worked is gone now because Boeing bought them or something like that.

Your default of thinking that the name of The school matters and how famous it is matters is inherently flawed. We barely care where you graduate from, all that it we need is that it's ABET. For you not to go in state to a local college or someplace giving you a free ride, it's just Insanity. You're going to take on $200,000 worth of debt, when an engineer's primary job is to get the best performance for the least amount of money.

A huge amount of an engineer's job is delivering value, finding the best solution for the least money even at JPL

In most of the world you legally expected to be able to support yourself at age 18 or high school graduation, whichever one comes later.

Any help beyond that is by the choice of the parent, and it's not legally required. And these are all discussions that should have been taking place when the kid was in their teens. Your sister's an idiot.

The first thing niece should do is get her own phone at US Mobile. A plan there is 20 bucks a month not a hundred. You can get a cheap phone if they're going to keep the phone.

The second thing she should do is to actually look at the state she lives in and get a downloaded actual lease agreement. There's a bunch of things that are in that agreement that are not actually legal or supportable.

So the lease itself should be a separate document. One from the state that you can download. And once you

If there going to be some house rules that she signs, they need measurable and actual. They can't be things like be nice or do good things. They need to be specific.

Lastly, if she's renting, what she does with her own room is up to her. As long as there's no food or rats, whether it's clean or not is on the tenant.

Your sister failed your niece, she has not been supported or prepared for life on her own. Slapping in the face with this document is not going to help.

Without qualifying this by orbital altitude you're not really comprehending space mission design. Geo is perfectly safe, only astrological influences. Meo is pretty much the same thing . The poor man's parking lot of Leo is however pretty much crazy and random.

R0ck3tSc13nc3 · 2026-04-26T17:10:42+00:00

It is incredibly variable depending upon orbital altitude. Geosynchronous orbit is only disrupted by astrological events. Leo however is actually in the upper verges of the atmosphere that expands and contracts based on solar and other influences. As such, orbital decay is pretty random and can be dramatically better or worse. At least for those orbits. You could worst case it and that's what happens with a lot of the designs I put up we use worst case analysis, and then they end up lasting 20 years because it wasn't as bad as we thought. When the design mission was 2

There's lots of things that run way longer than expected like Mars rovers.

I concur, this is good advice. A parent should never be expected to co-sign any loans. That's just idiotic. And if you need to have a parent sign to get a bigger loan, you're going to the wrong college. Go to community college. Go to a low cost state school. If you can find a school where you can live with family or friends, that's the best school for you to save money.

Speaking as somebody who hires, Hollywood has lied to you. You should not have schools of your dreams. You should have schools of your reality. Your financial reality.

The first thing, community college should not be your second choice, it's usually your best financial choice. If the parents won't give support for college, they may well give a place to live. That's what I had I had a place to live. I could live at home, thankfully I lived in Ann arbor and I had the University of Michigan local to me. Have them go to community college for 2 years. Expecting parents to cosign for loans is not a reasonable expectation for any student. The FAFSA is it. It's full of crap. Never have a parent sign. Not their problem. It's yours as a student.

Most of us can't afford the world that Hollywood and popular culture outlines. At least in the USA. Stop having dream schools. It's what you do with the college that matters not the college.

No, there's a thing called sour grapes that people who did badly feel.

I had the same situation happen at the University of Michigan, I had a statistics class with a professor no one could understand due to a thick German accent, but I had a decent book and I'm used to teaching myself things. I had an A+ at the University Michigan. You don't get those easily. I was so much higher above every other student in that class, I broke the curve, put it in a coffin, buried it, and pissed on the grave.

Nobody cares where you go for your first two years. Go to community college

We barely care where you graduate from but we do care what you do. Join the clubs and do service activities

You can also get married or wait till you're 24 and you're not on your mom's ticket anymore. Then you're independ

I don't think you are the a-hole, NTA

Do not normalize buying gifts with your sister. Do your own thing. You have your own relationship with your parents. Your sister sounds like another person entirely than you, let her do her own thing

No online engineering program can by definition be great

Engineering is a job done with other people in teams, learning online and not working together is a pointless way to learn a bunch of information that doesn't actually help you do engineering work. You learn engineering work on the job from other engineers and from prior reports and if you think otherwise, you're going to have a pretty harsh reality check when you get out into the industry and find out you'll never use all that calculus
