You can tell this is an ancient meme because it prices college at 4 years at $9,000 per year instead of 5 years at $30,000 per year 😆

      I hear that HVAC payscales are pretty nuts. The trick apparently is putting yourself back on the market at the start of each summer season – there are never enough HVAC people when July comes around.

        To combat heat, I built a cooled water loop tubing into a breathable one piece suit, I like to say I got the idea from NASA to get people to not worry about my dress attire when I arrive. Wikipedia has it under the name liquid cooled garment.
