Re: How many hours does your team work during the build season? Pol
Our official meeting times are
Monday - Friday 6pm-10pm.
But a teacher is there at 2 pm right after school and usually 2-4 students work on the robot starting at 2.
On Saturdays (and Sundays occasionally) 9/10am - 9am.
These are our favorite days because the mentors usually have had at least 3 dunkin donuts runs for coffee, and all the students have a few Mobile runs to get bottles of mountain dew.
Some of our funniest memories are from these 12hr meetings like when the wood shop decided to prank the metal shop. The wood shop mentors and students told a freshmen to go into the other room, and say that they were about to sand a battery so that it can fit in the battery holder. so the freshmen did this and even turned the sander on and slowly put the battery towards it. Not until the last second did somebody catch that was happened. Previously all that they had said was "be safe" "put your safety glasses on".
The long days are not only fun but there team bonding, and alot of work gets done.
