Lots of interesting news today

Pretty easy to see how college is so expensive. 3.8:1 staff to student ratio at State. Id like to see how the part time hours count in to that so I better know how mad to be.


its so easy to see and understand.....for 40 years colleges have just said it costs 'this much'

and the feds will loan money for that amount
and it increases every year
and more and more kept paying
 
I’m gonna need some of the brain trust here to apply for this job and fix the sh!tshow that is the NCDMV.

It’s never been great, and it’s only gotten worse. The whole appointment thing is a complete sham.

NC needs to see how Virginia does it. It is so much better and smoother up here. You get your tags and license all at one place. They have TV's, comfy chairs and nice updated buildings to be in. Everybody is friendly and knows their stuff.
 
LC2 are the best cans i have used, i have some from tsc but they are way cheaper quality.

Thats how it is here too.
They do 90% of things by appointment, which you can set via online or an app, and as little as 30 mins ahead of time. Rarely any wait.

See, I wouldn't mind the appointment thing if they actually held to it. Our 0930 appointment at the ss office didn't happen until 1100!

I don't like how you can only make an appointment like 2 months out and they all fill up immediately and you can't just select a time and find an open office. So instead you have to click on each office and try to find one in a couple month window. My license was up in December. I tried to schedule an appointment back in June or something when I realized it was expiring, but nothing available and you can't book out a few months. It's a friggin database, it's not hard, they just choose to make it stupid.

I'm sure it will all be better by the time you have to get licenses for your youngest, lol. What a shit show.

There are islands of sanity. I hate to divulge this. But Stedman office is sane, competent, and manages walk-ins. You show up early in the morning and they give you a same day return time. That's the only way Mark and I could get him in to get a driving test anywhere in a 200 mile radius.
