You know you've been in the shop too long during week 6 if...
Anyone mind a sequel to a popular thread from near ship date last year? (Sorry to be somewhat repetitive to the other "You know you've had too much FIRST" threads.) I'll get it started:
You know you've been in the shop too long during week 6 if...
...you have resorted to cutting entire modules, fully assembled, on the bandsaw.
...you have said, "only two of the holes really need to be aligned, right."
...the janitors/security guards ask you to lock up.
...you start using euphemisms like "minor tweaking" and "slightly misaligned" to make finishing on time sound more feasible.
...(for the Northeast/Midwest) you ride out a winter storm in the shop because it's easier than going home and coming back.
...(for the college students) you start wondering if your professors miss you, then find solace in the fact that they probably don't even know your name.
