hey all,
So at 11 a.m this morning, I go to the college here for an interview. I applied for the Heavy Duty Equipt. Technician apprenticeship course. I have to go for an interview to determine whether or not they'll accept me. This course covers tuition and books with no cost.
I am oh so nervous about this as my future income relies on it. If I don't do good, I'll have to fish out over $5000 for college. This, is virtually free though.
So wish me luck.
GL :pimp:
Good luck.
You'll get it.
good-luck-man-you-got-this
Thanks for the words people! :thumbsup:
The worst part about it all is the waiting. Man I hate waiting. :p
Anyways, I'm off now as my interview is in an hour. I'm going to have a fat bowl packed for me when I come out of there. :rasta: I'll report back later and let you know how it went.
Take care. Peace.
I hope you get on the course, what's your name? :p

Well I'm happy to say they accepted me after making me wait for 15 minutes. The questions they asked were so nerve-wracking. 2 interviewers with questions going back and forth. Not to mention the 7 pages of papers I had to fill out, and the 10 more for EI coverage.
I had a fat bowl waiting for me when I was done though. :p I'm so happy I just made a batch of brownies. I plan on eating one or two in a few hours. Mmmmm yeah *drool*
I start in 1 week though, so life is about to get nutty. 9-4pm for school, then I have to bike 4 km to work, get off at like, 6pm, and I'm done, so I guess it's not that bad.
I'm studying for my DL right now too, so I'll have that, but I'm looking forward to losing my mind. I really am. :thumbsup:
Good job Nochowder I knew you were going to make it!
May this new path enlighten your already brighten up world :)
Caught this late...
Gratz!!!
Yeah Congratulations dude!!
Glad to hear all went well :)
Thanks Skink and AZ! :thumbsup:
Excellent job! That is a huge difference between 5k and almost free! Glad you got it :jointsmile: :jointsmile: :jointsmile:
Not almost free, 100% free. Books and full tuition are covered. It's being funded by the province as employers are hard up for new workers.
I save $5000 and get free schooling. :stoned:
Awsome, dude! :thumbsup:
Congratulations!!!
wow good job! I like reading about good things happening to good people.
Congrats on the job :jointsmile:
I'm paying around $14,000/year here, no free money for me though :(
Yeah..so what, I am late..Congrats though..
How is school going?
School is going pretty damn good. Got 87% on the first unit exam, and I get the results back from the second unti exam I did on Friday. There is this one chick in the class and she's in a halfway house. The halfway house is upstairs from the institute in an old hotel, and she won't tell me why she is there. She's mega hot, but has a boyfriend :( but she's a bit of a bitch, so I wouldn't date her anyhow :p
Other than that, people there are cool and the school work isn't all bad. Not as heavy as I thought it would, plus I get student funding too. They give me $450 a month to go to class, and I have a card that covers 100% dental, eyecare, hospital care, and prescription drugs. :thumbsup: It's pretty sweet. I could get hit by a bus and I wouldn't have to pay a thing. :p
