Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

(After a long 12 hours of practice)
Mentor: Can you get me a hammer?
Me: (Comes back after a few seconds) Got it!
Mentor: DJ, this is a 6-foot 80/20 extrusion.
Me: I could've sworn I grabbed a hammer.

"Uum... Why?"

"Words are hard"

"It is not a hammer, it is a cognitive recalibration tool"

Mentor1 talking to Mentor2: "Hey, could you, you know, go talk to the students and try and keep them working? They're...well....playing pattycake."

Mentor2 talking to Student: "I'm going to have to take your man license."

Student: "I lost that years ago."
