how to make a deadbeat client pay so the contractor quits calling you

time warping

how to seduce a woman everytime

In my office the things that have come up the most in conversation as things we wish we'd taken in school are Spanish, welding, and some sort of interior design survey class.

Things we took that we are very glad we did: project management, design marketing, portfolio preparation, theory of representation, color theory, writing for business.

Things we feel we wasted credits on: most software courses.

stress management

The psychology and treatment of mental disorders.

i really shouldn't do this, but i have to....

Any class that explained to me what architecture really would be like

evasive driving for body guards and mercenaries.

construction cost estimating
design build (it was offered, I was advised against it somehow)
social psychology
golf - to keep those (business) skills sharp
Entrepreneurship
Any class geared toward practical stuff, there weren't many offered but a few topics were: accessibilty, acoustics
Personal finance

worthless electives I took instead:
Creative writing (the teacher encouraged the Danielle Steele wannabes. I got straight B's)
Contemplative Creativity (meditating and talking positively about creating stuff with a bunch of hippies, listening to Deepak Chopra!)

how to seduce a woman 101 is a class i think i need to take

I always wished I had a class where we would design a build furniture. Guess that would include woodworking, welding and textiles.

Pro-practice was a great class but should've been much more in-depth.

Had to take a class to learn how to draft old school with tech pens and such. Don't ever really use the skill but I wouldn't call it a waste.

Biggest waste of time was a small class which I cannot even remember the course name but they taught us things like ven diagrams and info matrix. Not sure what the point of it even was. But I did take a quiz while still hammered from heavy drinking the prior night. Got my best marks on that one too.

I took golf!!!

That was a great choice! 'course, I don't play, but it was fun. I more prefer the mountains or more physical sports. Out here in Co, though, you'll get better connections being a good biker than a golfer.

Golf would be good. Plenty of opertunities on offer to netwrok also an anual in house golf comp.

Resolved now to have a few proffessional lessons before letting rip on a course and embarrassing myself and others.

The Ryder cup is arriving down the road in 2012 so I've got something to work towards.

i did the welding thing and would recommend it if you get a chance!

I did some time in a small foundry casting 1m zinc anodes for survey ships. Heavy Industry is very rewarding. Big, hot, dangerous stuff. Arc welding is very satifying.
