They would send the bill to a collection agency, who would harass you nonstop via calls, mail, etc. The debt would go on your credit report, which employers CAN reference in the hiring process. So lets say your potential employer overlooks it but they're far enough that you need a vehicle to commute. Good luck trying to get that car loan you need so you can have a vehicle to go to a job to pay off your debt. It's a fucked system.

What program did you take at school?

CNC Machine Technology program at a local community college. Learned a ton from basic G&M coding to MasterCAM x9, setups on HAAS and Fadal machines, etc etc. Ran a couple parts last semester, just ran my second for this class today. Really neat stuff if you like making shit and want to be in a field that is constantly expanding.

Just got hired on as a machinist. Less than a year of school under my belt and I'll be making more hourly than I have at any other job I've had. Fuckin wild... Didn't see this turning into a career this quickly but I'm pumped as hell on it.

Super 7X were similar to Rhyno Lites, perhaps a bit tougher. Chrome was generally shit in my experience. The best Araya rim was by far the RB-J1.

Trimmed my rear fender and rewired my tail light. Still needs some clean up work, but overall makes the rear end look a lot nicer. Let's keep this thread going nerds.

The new Tame Impala album has been on heavy repeat for the past month. Same with the new Mac Demarco record.

Also, if you've never heard of Cherry Glazerr... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79l5eAbljR4
Saw them live at a small venue here in town. Super good live, was blown away by how young the girl is though. I think she's like... 18?
