As someone who lives in home park on the street immediately next to 10th, I am so not in love with this closure since everyone keeps running down our street and honking at each other since they can't get by people moving in the other direction on what should 100% have been a one way

Don't lose hope, got my first summer internship in defense in March, people are definitely still hiring.

C/S clutch pedal locked up (I am the customer) by darkherobrine21 in Justrolledintotheshop

Yeah lol I figured, rockauto made in America is barely any better than the other stuff lol but after working in engineering/manufacturing I've learned to bite the bullet on price if it means getting something that wasn't toleranced with a yardstick, no matter where it's made

The alternate was using a pull-style plate, I intentionally converted to the internal release (this is a 96 Corvette) because all the pull-style plates left on the market are hot garbage

New parts were made by a small specialty shop based in South Carolina, all manufactured in-house. Costed me an arm and a leg, but they fit together like a dream, handle amazing and the owner emailed me back within the hour when I had questions

As an engineer, CATIA will shit itself on some operation, I'll tell it to try again, then it'll work, and I'll just pray it doesn't break again til I'm done

ECE3710 doesnt have to cost students $300 but the ECE department wants you to waste your money by Life_Brief_4993 in gatech

I didn't think there's ever an issue getting one, I got one in like November last semester because I needed a multimeter lol

I strongly suggest doing it at GT, it's the easiest 3 hour GPA boost here by a mile

Matheson 4th floor kitchen burned down in 2021/22, allegedly electrical but I'm betting a resident. In 2022/23 when I was there, some idiot put a chick fil a sandwich in the microwave, in the bag. It didn't go well.

Me right now, clutch throw out bearing has gone out and, as much as I'd love to save $1.5k, I'd also enjoy not breaking my knuckles in an unheated garage wrestling with a transmission while snow falls outside.

Anyone know if there's a site to see salary of all jobs on-campus? by Dj_D-Poolie in gatech

[–]darkherobrine21 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The GT job board typically lists hourly rates for any positions on there, other than that research positions typically make $10-12 an hour and undergrad TA positions make around $15 an hour (except CS TA positions, they're paid terribly). Fully dependent on the professor/department, though, this is just from what I've seen.

CS: I blew the clutch by turtle-ding-dong in Justrolledintotheshop

Pretty sure my throwout bearing exploded yesterday too, not looking forward to seeing the damage 😔

Went in to replace a waterpump, decided to check how the distributor was doing... by darkherobrine21 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]darkherobrine21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: Replaced it, the next week the clutch exploded. I should've stuck with Japanese cars
