>> It helped me because the class times were flexible enough
where I could still hold my existing job while I finished my schoolwork here.
The schoolwork were separated almost completely evenly between learning the book part
of the trade and being able to work in the lab and physically do the work.
So with a good mix you had to go back-and-forth.
You never get bored.
You never just sit in the lab the whole day.
You wouldn't be stuck reading a book the whole day.
It's always mixed up.
There's always the next challenge that's coming.
