We can definitely see this chap was not influenced by Gordon Freeman Good luck with that, rough course

 

[Druckles]

Flexi time rocks.

You didn't answer the question.

We're scheduled 22 hours, but we're expected to an extra 20 on our own. So is your 40 scheduled or in total?

 

[Saturos]

I used to be a career student. I have several diplomas, certificates, and degrees.

In total: Nothing set in stone, but as long as we're in between 10:30am and 4:30pm most days, then make up 40 hours whenever outside of that, we're ok.

What sort of company do you work for?

 

[Druckles]

Oh, I see. You're working. I missed that part.

No, I'm currently in university. My company last year had a similar flexitime, though, although we had a 37 hour week.

Ah yes.
Are you finding uni more difficult or less difficult than work?

 

[Pulse]

13 hours a week and Mondays off... 3 day weekend

I will need that spare time to finish off assignments and reports, which they completely flood you with on a weekly basis.

****ing Freshers' flu. Didn't get it last year, but it's royally ****ed me up this year.

I feel for you brother, I've managed to contract it as well! Feel like absolute death at the moment... I blame all those dirty, dirty new people on campus.

 

[Druckles]

Ah yes.
Are you finding uni more difficult or less difficult than work?

It depends. It's certainly more expensive than work. And the lack of an income is a serious bummer. However, it's good to be back in a learning environment. Less direct pressure from clients and such. Downside is I have to work outside of hours.

My timetable:

MON: 3D For film: 9.30AM - 12:30
TUE: Computer Games Design 2A Lecture: 4PM-5
WED: Day off
THURS: 3D Animation 9AM-12 3D Facial Modelling: 2PM-5
Friday: Computer Games Design 2A Practical: 11AM-1

Not too bad I guess, gotta do a lot of extra hours in my own time though.
Also my level design module got cancelled due to lack of staff thats why I'm doing 3D for film on a games course.

 

[The Monkey]

Wow, lots of guys started uni this semester.

Shit, that's one sneaky-lazy-ass-course you got there! What uni is it at?

 

[Ren.182]

Staffordshire University.

And yeah, it's pretty easy lecture/tutorial-wise. 3D for film on monday was pushed back half hour to half 9 cause nobody liked the 9am start lol.

I do need to put a lot of time in out of my free time though D:

 

[Druckles]

I can imagine. Map work and game design can be a chore. Unless you're Pi.
