Did you end up spending the full amount your program said you’d spend for books? (Working on my budget 😬)

Other than the coursepacks that were force-charged to my student account (totaling around $350 for a school year), I didn’t spend a penny on books.

hi fishes,
I have joined lti as a lateral.
After joining they have asked me to collect laptop from office. When i went, the laptop was not in a great condition and was refurbished. I am guessing it was used almost 3 to 4 years before me.

I asked them for a new laptop and they said they dont have new laptop in stock, i even checked with my manager she said she is also using refurbished laptop so no problem.

Anyone else faced this problem earlier?. If yes how did you act on it?
