Feb 20, Homework

ALMOST DONE!! WE'RE ALMOST DONE! PRAISE WHICHEVER DEITY YOU BELIEVE IN!!!

Srsly guys and gals, it's the last week of classes. Take a look back at some of our finer moments and commiserate.

It's been a journey, and we've all done very well. I don't want to speak for everyone, but the sum of our parts is greater than the whole. Everyone has given such a great effort and strived to help wherever they can, and I think we should all be proud of what we have accomplished as individuals, and more importantly, as a team.

And thank you for choosing me as your foreman! I learned a lot from each person in the class, including things about myself.

This is where we all get off and go our separate ways. Some of us will stay here, some of us will go to Fort Mac (Mel...) and who knows where some of us might end up! Ocho cerveza, Jude!

To everyone, I hope the journey doesn't just stop here. I hope you never stop, and I hope you don't let anything get in your way towards the ultimate goal of starting this course. The only thing that can stop you, is you.

So for one last time, here we go!

Get your book 2 Jeopardy questions ready. We MIGHT do them tomorrow, we might not. Fun!

Prepare yourself for the motor control exam tomorrow morning, and let's get that 3rd year room ready for those students to continue their journey too!

And finally, get ready for the electronics, CEC and finally, the theory exam; Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.

I leave you, with this:

Please, NEVER be like this

Home Stretch: Bonus Dress for Success Edition

You heard it kids and kidettes, put on your least grubby clothing, put away your books and tools and wow the reps from Bridge Electric and the Longshoreman's Union!

We have a fun filled day with some morning motor controls, meetings with those two companies recruiting us fine young electricians, and then some resume building workshops. I took one before as a career decision making process, and that's how I found out I wanted to do this trade in the first place!

Brennan you didn't miss much in shop. We simply worked on what we had to, whether it was pulling wire in the 'house' or wiring motor controls! Hope you feel better.

January 8 Homework

Norm's probably back tomorrow, so remember to bring your C6 Rigging package with you to class so he can collect it! Also, we need to finish F2, LT/ST 5-7 by tomorrow as per Raph!

Back at it! January 7!

Hey everyone, just got on my email and read that Norm is sick and that Raph will be our instructor tomorrow, so for SURE get those code questions done. Pages 59-61, Section 26 in code!

Norm also mentioned that this panel board exercise is the real deal, so we better make it tip-effin-top or else!
