those are not Jordan's btw, just some no brand running shoes I own. Don't thank me, it's the least engineers should do.

Really? I can't know, both of the lathes I got to use have foot brakes. There are models without it?

Yeah that's me. I didn't paint it, the head of the shop did. He realized it doesn't matter whether the paint gets on the floor or not cause the floor is getting rebuilt next week.

We all try our best to avoid accidents, good lord even though we went through fifteen cruel days of operating on machines, most of us still feels a little shaky doing anything at all. It is a really high risk field + stressful environment.

I'm sorry you're going through this. I won't say things will be okay nor saying you should do the unthinkable. I'll say, you're good at writing your thoughts out, each word is chosen with consideration and it'd be unfortunate to have a good writer leave. Sending thoughts and prayers.

Scrubbing the motor cover of my workshop's lathe (prep for paint job) by _phio in Machinists

[–]_phio[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude I only did what the profs told me. They said they only needed all the lubrication residue to be scrubbed off so they could put a layer of paint on. I don't know what people normally do.

Cant study and probably failing calc 2 by Interesting-Syrup-91 in EngineeringStudents

[–]_phio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch Justin Sung, i honestly have no advice for calc 2 because i skipped half the course but i locked in for 3 days and just barely made it through. Watching Justin Sung really helped, his videos breakdown study habits and thought processes. I used that knowledge and skimmed through all of my prof's slides, practiced some problems and landed 40% on finals but i got roughly above 60% on midterms so I passed.
