How do you like the management course? It's what I'm leaning towards taking.

s2oooR
I just wrote BUS 412 (Adv. Mgt acctg) mid term, it wasnt too bad but, u have to be on top of your game on those days other wise u just feel lost and draw blanks on the exams :dunno: Well, thats for me anyways. Im doing alright :bthumbup:

VerbotenZ34
I park in the Muni as well, 4G63PWR - haven't seen your Talon. Maybe we come at different times,....?
I also just finished my midterms and DESTROYED my BUS422 Managerial Finance test (83%!). Management is a good middle of the road route to take if you can't get into/have no desire for Finance/Accounting. You can specialize in one aspect of management or you can give yourself a broad skill set.:bthumbup: I think it's alot more flexible than Fin/Acct, as well

Its a great course, but their is lots of group projects and a few presentations to do. Its a great course for almost any job aspect for the fact that you gain a good amount of training in how businesses opperate. I enjoy it though, like VerbotenZ34 said, its a mix of everything, accounting, marketing, and finance. I love how you can take electives. I have to do 422 next semester, doing managerial accounting now, 77% on the midterm.

I'm acctualy driving my dad's Chrysler Dynasy right now, my car will be stored untill the end of March. If you drive up to the second level its almost impossible to miss the car, if its there, becuase their is no one else that parks in that area.

I go to NAIT, in business year1, sem1. I was smart enough to scam myself a parking pass :cool:

s2oooR
how'd u manage that? :blue:

enquiring minds want to know :beer:

BLK_LBL
Special circumstances. Im self-employed. So with my parking application I brought in a business card, wrote a business letter explaining why a parking stall would benefit me, and then I got a letter from one of the companys I contract out to.(recommending a parking pass could get me to and from work faster)

a girl i know just claimed that she plays hockey and has to stay at school late at night.. so she needed a parking stall so she wouldnt have to walk far late at night..... and they gave her one that day!

It's all up to the discretion of the lady in the parking office.

Well im a fellow nait student. We are full of dick in our class.. not a single girl. Im in Electronic Service Tech. I used to park in bums-ville bumfuck way over in the residential by the ETA, but now, I just got a parking pass! look for me in that big 12 floor parkade, im usually on the roof, just look for the silver GA with a partially busted up rear bumper. Take a look at my pass as you do, I bet you'll love it as much as I do.

98 teg
why wood some of you guys advertise what you have in your car then tell people where you park, the tower parkade is a joke, where mycar got broken into:dunno:

VerbotenZ34
I don't park in the Muni parkade anymore, because most days I'm only at school for an hour or two this semester (and they wouldn't refundmy money, either, because the semester had already started:mad: )
Besides, with so many board members going to NAIT, we kinda have an unofficial Neighbourhood Watch for each others cars.

If we all parked in the HP parkade, I'd just watch a stream on my desktop all the time of the video :)

so any theives out there dont even waste your time, i dont know why people still break into my car...? theres nothing of value in there...maybe my half-empty AXE deodorant bodyspray :dunno:

VerbotenZ34
Haha, thanks Trevor - nice to see Big Brother is watching out for those of us in the HP lot :p

Well put it this way, if you really want to steal a car, you will no mater what, but having a nice alarm does help, god I love my setup for mine. Its kinda like my buddies alpine, but it doenst have all the goodies he has, like the bubble thing when you can have your windows down and it sets off the alarm, or the trunk release, but it does have the two way and backup battery:)

Ive parked in the hp center a few times in the evening s when Iam at school late, sweet, -30 outside and warm inside, take it that spot is for instructors only, they should have made it bigger though

2003specv
Wow, 17 people from here, not including the alumni's. Not bad

TrevorK
I've actually seen thieves who tried to break into cars in the HP Parkade chased down and caught.

It's like Fort Knox in there ;)

I always wanted to try stuff from there, but I don't know where I'd put it since I'd still have like 3 hours of work left.....

Shitty - because it looks like it's a good price usually too (I get the email of the daily specials).

I'm in CST Good ol HP centre. I park in the 2 hour parking across the street from the HP centre and just creep up a foot every 2 hours. :p

TofuBoi
^ hahaha............ I do the same thing........ but i can park the whole day! :bthumbup:

Neo-Blue99GASE
hehe I sometimes did that in ther residential by the HP, its fun to just jump from stop to spot in the 2 hour parking.

Hey, Verboten, next time your at the parkade take a drive to the top, if you havn't been their yet. I didn't think that their would be much profit from that parkade just from NAIT students parking their...

... Humm I'm enrolled to go to NAIT in September 2004. Does that count?:blink:

Why? What's at the top? Leprechauns and pots of gold?:D
Sure, next time I'll drive up top. As for the profit:dunno:
I'm not sure how much the shuttle costs the school for ~8 months and their arrangement with the Muni, but I figure after those are paid for its all gravy - their overhead is nil.

You must be pretty sneaky - apparently they can follow you from any point in the parking lot, through the mall, and out the mall to the NAIT grounds with their cameras.

bigmack000
saits better :P

eeebowlahhh
yeah when i was at nait we parked at kingsway too..

ChromeDragon
If you want to park at Kingsway and you come back after class to find a ticket, or your car towed, head inside the mall, buy a chocolate bar and proceed to tear the people at security a new one. If you're a paying customer at the mall they are not allowed to ticket you.

You can get parking passes for as low as $30 on campus.

I think the ticket dispensers are 2-3/day for parking - and there is some free parking around too.

Plus everywhere around campus (Curling club, church, etc...) sell parking to students as well on a monthly basis.

VerbotenZ34
Yeah, if you're quick on the draw you can find parking close to NAIT on private property. I always seem to miss out on opportunities though - I don't know how many times propert owners told me "oh, some other student got that space this morning"

nissanz32
I just got parking at the beginning of school and now I always have a spot in L.

4G63PWR, I went to the top of the parkade today - and all I saw were rows of Infiniti G35's:eek: (and Impalas and Silverados among other things, but lets prioritize :p ). Is it a dealership storage lot? No wonder your remark about parkade profit was so cryptic:blink:

Yah, it looks like a storage lot. You would never expect all those new vehicles in that parkade.

VerbotenZ34
At least I know where to get a G35 on the cheap, now heh heh heh:cool:
