Montclair decided to not allow sophmores to park on campus anymore which means my nice empty parking garage that I like to park in was full. So, I had to wait for people to leave (even though I spend $100+ extra a year to park in that garage) and was therefore late to class.
I think I may have resolved the problem, though. It just made me very frustrated too early in the morning.
That sucks! I remember if I didn't get to NJIT by like 7:30, the parking garage was full. I just double parked people and moved my car later. Also, (evil laugh) when my office parking garage is full because of festivals here in downtown b-hem, I borrow one of the orange cones from the storage locker (which is never locked) and put it in front of a space in the back when my car's not there. Then I've got a space the next day. Works pretty well.
I thought NJIT is an engineering school? They teach food preparation there too or whatever a degree like that is called?
No - I don't have a culinary degree. I was going to NJIT for architecture.
Oh. I almost went there for the same thing. Now I design mechanical parts instead of houses.
Nice!
I only have a Drafting Certification too. You just have to be ambitious. If you choose the right field, you don't need a 4 year degree or more. I see people go to school for things like Sociology, and I wonder, why bother. One guy I know has that degree and now does accounting. LOL!
Not everyone is talented in areas where they can find something that you don't have to do four years or more. Maybe, looking back now, I can figure out something I could have done. At the time there's no one to give you a list of things you can do that won't take four years of schooling first, unfortunately.
Everyone does what they think is good for them. If I wasn't in a serious relationship back then, I think I would've finished an architecture degree. Everyone's goals are different and constantly changing.
Yeah I guess my point is, some people pick degrees that are useless. So make sure what you pick will support you.
School parking is so absurd! I sold my garage pass to some desperate sophmore because as a senior I can park on campus (which is now seriously less crowded because all the sophmores are in the garage). The waiting list for the garage was over 200 people! Hah.
I can always take the train too. I've seen people use the orange cone ploy in the garage last year..people just ran the cones over.
At least you made a few bucks off the useless pass.
my niece has the same problem....she goes to CSF and they had to build 2 extra parking structures to try to fit everyone. they have shuttles that pick up students from one end in anaheim to their school in fullerton.
Shuttle busses are the real bane of my existance. I have the operating number on my speed dial and call them once a week to complain.
why? are they not fast enough? i know the kids at CSF complain too...my niece said it just doesnt work.
Sometimes they just don't show up but you'll see one going to a different location go by like..3 times.
