I really like it. It is not the cheap model, but a step up. The only thing I dislike about it is in full tuck u have to bend ur neck a bit more than others due to the front top comes down a bit more than others. Great if ur riding into the sun... u can tilt down a bit and keep it out of ur eyes. I will buy another next. Mine is a 2016 model. I hear they have changed this issue in the newer model years. Racers complaining?

Man would I like to chat with you cause I have a 12YO in middle school and can't figure out where these teachers are coming from AT ALL...........................
IDK--could be the community. My middle school sucked. We had two great teachers but a bunch who would probably preferred to do something else. It's a tough age group. One I always hoped to avoid but recently it has become my favorite age to work with. I am still terrified of kindergarteners and always have been.
One thing I can tell you, making contact with your kid's teachers makes a big difference, at least it does with me. When they know you know their mom a/o dad or grandpa/gramma, it has a lot of impact on the relationship they have with you. I also have a more positive attitude with a student who is having trouble if I know their folks. Having a good relationship with your boss or teacher or any superior definitely helps anyone.

That's because they're little terrorists. They know there's nothing you can do to stop them, so they operate with impunity......

What genre do you write in? I like to read, although admittedly most of what I read now is compulsory rather than for enjoyment....

Agreed! Although I never went for any certs I did the degree route. After working in the field I realized actual hands on knowledge is much more valuable than someone with a degree or 10 certs. Good help is hard to find and I definitely find myself drowning sometimes because of the workload. Trying to rollout Sharepoint as we speak, integrate a new payroll system etc while balancing everything else is tough. Unfortunately IT work comes with deadlines and I definitely overpromise. Blah blah LOL Pays the bills!

I agree with that to an extent, only thing with the barber is there is less chance of error. Automotive and the diagnosing that goes with it unfortunately means that sometimes the repair doesn't always fix the problem. But the trust level required is all the same.

Everyone overpromises in IT. That is what seperates the good from the great. And as far as deadlines, those in IT know that deadlines mean long hours, sleepless nights and unequivocal amounts of stress. So much has changed now a days with cloud computing. Everything is hosted, but back when I was in IT the majority of equipment was housed on-site and the backups as well. Has the transitions effected business for you at all?

Funny you say that. We just moved onto O365 in a Hybrid environment. I assumed this would cause us less hassle but sometimes it can be a pain in the ass. We had issues with public folders appearing and disappearing on desktops and Microsoft literally had no answer for us. Literally 2 months passed and they still don't know the issue. Tried blaming the inhouse desktops but I proved them wrong by doing a clean win 10 install O2016 and the issue persisted. Of course, you don't have any real access to their hosted side so sometimes it makes things difficult.
It's nice in a way as uptime has been pretty consistent but we had to kick up the internet. We are trying to move file sharing onto the cloud and get rid of some of the inhouse servers. We used Barracuda SSL VPN for a while but for file sharing it is literally the worst system.
