Tonight, I got my first assignment back and I did good
For reference, see: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x8103233#8103581

I got a check+ which is the top grade he gives. Out of the people who did the paper (quite a few did not) I saw some checks and some check+'s, and even a paper that was done on ragged (torn out of a notebook without a perforation) lined paper, in pen. I didn't see that grade, but I did see one paper that just had a few Excel sheet boxes, and he only got a check.

According to his grading system (perfect attendance all assignments completed, and his top homework grade), I currently have an A, so that's good. :D

He made a bunch of check marks throughout my paper (apparently noting good points.. especially the ones he made in classes which I made sure to use liberally) and left this note at the end of my paper:

"Outstanding analysis - You have an excellent handle on the applications of each unit and the "cost factors" i.e. savings benefit, training, down time, etc."

:woohoo:

1. I believe you mean, "I did well"
:eyes:

:rofl:


How are you feeling? Did you quit smoking yet? That should be my new sig because I'm going to bust on you until you do. You and the wifey.

5. I think you will be amazed how rapidly you get the
asthma under control if you quit. I know it's hard, but you will feel so much better. Asthma sucks. The gasping for air thing just sucks.

8. It sucks too that I work with Darryl Weaver
He smokes more than one pack (Marby lights :puke:) in maybe 6 hours time, tops (I know because he asks me to bring him to a store at 7am for butts, and then shortly after lunch for another pack). He also chews gum like a cow while smoking. I'm a smoker, but he makes me sick. :puke:
He also has the most ungodly cough.

I know I should quit. Last night really sucked - It was like I was drowning or someone was sitting on my chest and they weren't as light as Bi-Baby.
