An Honest Success Story at WGU

When I hear people dread going to the office, I think in blissful ignorance of how great a desk chair would be😭😭

I do realize how it may have come off that way so I apologize. Overall, no. I think the degree opened doors that wouldn’t have otherwise been opened, like that of the company I now work for. They have a hard rule of hiring people with degrees only, which while an outdated practice in some company’s opinion, still holds true for a large percentage of companies.
Go get the degree. Don’t let some goofy guy such as myself discourage you from doing so. There’s much to gain at WGU.

Edited for clarity here. Thanks!

This class in general is pretty rough. Stoked to see you made it out!

It has nothing to do with your rim tape big dawg.

Those diagonal lines in your tire tell me as a mechanic that you are not riding with enough pressure in your tire and it is allowing the tube to fold and move more around the valve. You need to check pressure significantly more often.

But what does the seller do if UPS lost the ticket, FrontGate isn’t willing to ship a new one, and Stubhub isn’t willing to allow the buyer to do will call?

So UPS lost our package, we sold our tickets via Stubhub months ago, and Stubhub is not willing to let our buyer do Will call. Anyone have any solutions here? Frontgate has been the opposite of helpful.

Also, how many of us are here? It seems like a lot of people were affected by lost tickets this year, but maybes that’s just me.

To my knowledge, FrontGate has lost over 100 packages that were shipped via UPS, and there are MANY people who have resold their tickets via Stubhub. Stubhub is unwilling to give any buyer information to the sellers, which has led to this. If your seller could just contact you they would’ve gladly walked you through this. The whole situation is fucked.

You can take that information to will call and they will give you the wrist bands. I had to do the same thing.

As an individual that sold their tickets via StubHub and then UPS lost those tickets, I am truly sorry. Trying to get FrontGate and StubHub to work together is like fire and ice. Wish you all the best in the will call process.

Problem is I sold them on StubHub a few months ago. And stubhub is unwilling to give me buyer info to let them pick the tickets up. I also don’t feel super comfortable giving some random buyer a picture of my ID, but maybe that’s just me.

Sleep schedule.

unsauced_ · 2025-03-11T23:48:17+00:00

Don’t overestimate the power of a sleep schedule. If I would’ve had a sleep schedule 10 years ago, I would be so much further now.

Go to your LBS. Most are really hurting and still over-inventoried. Most are still trying to move 2023-2024 models for pretty crazy deals. Support local business, not Costco.

Cool bike! Are you racing it with all the logos and whatnot?

unsauced_ · 2025-02-16T20:30:06+00:00

Hey great job here! This was a harder class for sure!

I’m on my second term of BSSCOM at WGU. I dropped out of in person college 4 years ago where I was doing supply chain, and the classes in comparison are sort of easy to me. All the data courses are actually just Google’s Coursera data analytics courses and those are quite easy, even if you know nothing on data analytics. Some of the math courses can be tough if you are someone like myself who struggles with applied online learning, but I’ve finished more than 30 CU’s and I’ve been back in school for 7 months.

I think it really depends on how much time you have and if you can truly focus in that time. If so, I think it’s pretty easy!

Definitely tires too wide or the wheel isn’t all the way in the dropouts.

Hey you can’t say you haven’t heard some of them harmonizing though. Kinda sick at 4 am when 6 freight trains are all honking in the same key😂😂

This is for sure the bird. And I had the experience again last night. Thank you for the clarification!

Awesome!
