    But those younger ones who come to class with a hangover and just want to mess around all day are just a bunch of cretins. It doesn't matter a hoot about the teacher making allowances for them in their final marks etc etc.
    A piece of paper may get a kid a job, but how long before the employer realises that the piece of paper means Jack when the kid can't do the job properly ???

    The proof of the pudding old mate, is in the finished product......whether you can do the job properly or not. Any employer will tell you that.
    I was a Master Builder before I retired, and I got there by hard work and study and applying myself properly to my work. I knew when my brickies were no good.....knew within 5 minutes of them being on site.....never cared what their qualifications were or what their bits of paper entitled them to do.
    If they were no good, then they were booted off the site.

    They run and cry away to the union......so what ??? What could the union do to me ??? Nothing !!!! So I'd lay the bricks myself.
    If you are good at what you do, then anyone will hire you.

    My heart breaks when I read stuff like this.....


    ------------------

    "I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. My sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history, naval architecture, navigation, commerce and agriculture, in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry, and porcelain," said our second president, John Adams.

    Give them a cell phone and they'll get along just fine?


    I laugh when I see a KGB (info service) commercial.

    Are ya too lazy to look up a book entry or even go on the internet to find out the answer to your question?

    Nope, pay .99 and we'll answer it for you!

    I forgot to post this.....

    I "dropped a line" to the school.


    I went to get a schedule to see what was offered over the summer session and went by the area where my classes were held.

    The area where the projects were left was cleaned up and swept down.

    I don't know about what happened with anything else, but someone got the message.
