Our classes were about 30 students per class. There were about 6 instructors total as I remember and they rotated for classroom time. We'd spend about a month with each instructor as I remember. My favorite instructor was an older guy who used to be an actual construction welder. We had one black female in our class and one day the instructor made some crass sexual reference when explaining how to weld an open butt weld with 6010 welding rod. You basically use the rod to go in and out of the root to fill in the gap in pulses rather than just a steady bead which would burn off the edges of the bevels and leave a gaping hole. So, by pulsing the rod in and out it cools each time and fills in the gap. You know, in and out, every guy should understand that.

This ghetto trash bitch went and reported him and got him fired. Best damn instructor in the entire trade school and all it took was for one offended uppity bitch to get him tossed out.

I had one rather acrimonious encounter with her when I tired of student after student bringing their weld plates into the class and placing in a corner until the corner of the class room looked like a nasty jagged scrap yard. Most of the welds proudly placed there by various students were of poor quality and would fail any inspection so what was the point? I noticed it wasn't instructors making this pile of scrap and so one day deciding if the students could voluntarily take it on themselves to create a scrap heap, I could voluntarily take it on myself to make the class room safer and nicer looking. I started carting all the scrap plates to the scrap bin out on the shop floor for recycling.

Ghetto bitch was outraged and claimed I had no right, following me back and forth screaming at me as I carted all the junk out to the scrap bin by the armload. She kept it up as I deliberately ignored her and didn't say a word to her. After that she hated me with a passion. LOL. It did get my point across that no one gives a damn about your welds and we don't need them cluttering up the classroom. Everyone stopped leaving their practice welds in the classroom.
