My Cup of Tea.

From the sounds of the title of this post, there should be something about tea. But rather its more of my reflection on my own education up to this point and how it applies to this job. I have been working at my current job for the last 3 months and I have noticed that some of the courses that I have taken (that I thought were just a waste of time) have started to crop up in my daily routine. For example, the information that I have learned in the User Interface course has been almost invaluable in my line of work. The tasks that have been put in front of me within the last few weeks have forced me to review the material covered in that course. Everything about icon design, readability and even text position are actually on my list of things to do. I am delighted to see that my education is being put to the test.

But, I am not going to lie, there are subjects that I wish were available at Seneca. In essence, there are some aspects of this job that grind me squishy brain to a halt. Things like physics and vector calculus take semesters to learn but instead are forced into me in a matter of hours. But like any other lab, this place is full of people with higher levels of education then yours truly, so its not as bad as it might seem.
