Re: Look back at the 6 weeks.

From the six weeks i have learned that...

-its very depressing to see six weeks of hard work and labor summed up into a 3 minute video

- people need to be taught curtesy when given food not purchased by them... we ran out of enough snacks for about 4 weeks in 1 week, which has never happened before

- Work ethics and team pride are not necessarily gained in one build season... new members need to be taught more than just how to use tools, how to set up a pnuematic system, or what a tap does. They need tobe introduced and fully submerged into all aspects of robotics instead or just the technical points before they can be officially part of a community

-it is possible to clear out an entire room of animation kids by simply blasting heavy metal and hardcore music

-There are way too many types of people in robotics for it to be regarded as a geeky or nerdy thing...I have met some very interesting people in this organizationin from my past years on this team, many of whom have absolutly nothing in common other than the organization itself

-one man cannot live on soda and expired beef jerky alone(there was absolutly nothing left
