Waste. Of. Time.

Okay anyone that knows me knows I don't complain much, after all I've been through most everyday annoyances seem pathetic and mundane. But god school pissed me off today. I've been moving through class faster than everyone else so half the time I'm just sitting there browsing the net, so asked the teacher if there was anything I could do, so he sends me to the lab early. Whatever. Once down there I get a project for an OS reinstall and a virus/malware removal, which means 70 dollars, to me, which would be nice. So I start up the 2 hour hardware diagnostic and pull out my gameboy, 5 minutes later, batteries die. Now for anyone that doesn't know running a hardware diagnostic with nothing to do is the equivalant of watching paint dry! So I'm stuck there for 2 hours watching paint dry when it finally finishes, all green. That means it doesn't need the OS reinstall, which means that's 40 dollars gone from the pay. Fine, next start up the virus and malware scans, 1 and a half hours later... green. So there's nothing there either. And of course diagnostics and scans aren't charged for if there's nothing found. I get nothing, I learned nothing, and I wasted 3 and a half hours of my life that could've been spent doing ANYTHING else. The only plus side was that while manually searcing for viruses out of desperation I stumbled on the client's porn collection, too bad I didn't have my flash-drive to save it onto to enjoy later. Now if you'll excuse me I'm gonna hop on dead rising and shoot stuff in the head till I'm not pissed off anymore.

If you remember where on the drive they kept it, then you could always go back and copy it later.

Once, when the plane was about to set off, a motor broke, so we had to wait eight hours in the airport for the next flight. And since it was 1991, I was in an airport with no TV, No wi-fi, nothing fun besides buying the newspaper or a magazine, and maybe something to eat. Eight hours of my life totally wasted, that will never come back.

This is one of the funnier rants I've seen. Sounds like you'll do well with the tech degree, as long as you bring extra batteries for your Gameboy.
