Well good luck man. Tech consulting is quite dull

Thx D1. I lost all of my momentum on this last project, can't wait to feel excited about work again. @PC1 I'm in SI

Good luck - school picked or early stages? Are you doing BTA program?

Thx @PC1 - tuition deposit is submitted!

Where too? - congrats and best of luck. Enjoy the next 6 months
