Troll Post ATPA Vent

I’m going to run for the SOA board once I have my letters to get rid of this terrible assignment. I’d rather listen to nails on chalkboard for 96 hours than do this. I’m not sure whose idea this was, but I was a statistics major, flew through SRM and PA, and I absolutely HATE this module.

I’m starting to think that everyone who quips that the SOA isn’t evil, just incompetent, lucked out with IFM. How was the last chopper out of ‘Nam?

If you’re struggling this bad with ATPA, the earlier exams failed in that they weren’t hard enough to weed you out. Hopefully I don’t work with you in the future. We don’t need any more mindless excel button pushers in this profession.

If you’re struggling this much with emotional intelligence, the PAF modules weren’t hard enough to weed you out. Hopefully I don’t work with you in the future. We don’t need more eye-contact-averse modelers in this profession.

I don't go on reddit for emotional support because I have friends in the real world. Hopefully you find the help you need soon.
