Underrated school supplies: protractor

 With Labor Day being a few weeks ago, NFL sunday week 2 just ending. It’s safe to and official call it but summer is over. Im sorry it had to be said. Sure we'll probably get a last minute heat wave for no reason, that makes it feel like summer, but besides that it’s done. Public schools just had their first official full week and your Catholic grammar schools have been well under way. 

So I want to talk about one of the most underrated school supplies of all time, the protractor. I loved my protractor back in my old grammar school days. If I recall right it was around 5th or 6th grade when I got one, needed it for math. The Protractor was a purple helix ultra flex protractor. 




partially color blind so feel like I had the one on the left but i swear it was purple but slightly color blind what do I know? Plus I thought it was the one on the right cuz was like this is kinda girlly but what ever I need this for tomorrow and not like I'm getting a different one so purple protractor welcome to the school supplies crew. Meet the compass, superman pencil, eraser erasable ink pens[ another underrated school supply and the other stuff in the pencil pouch. Also I was the guy still am who brought/had everything I'm the pen lending guy. But back to the original story of the protractor 


thing was awesome had the flex ability that other plastic protectors lack. So you bend this thing fold it and not have it snap like your peers shitty plastic ones did. 



Can throw this thing in you pencil case so when ever you need a straight edge boom you had one. Brass  knuckles, cover your eyes and act like cyclops from X-men. Plus when you put a ruler on a pencil and spin it the teacher could see you since you had this huge stick flinging around. You can put the protractor on it and only had 3 inches on each side spinning around so 3 inches was/ is plenty for fun, despite some people saying other wise. Plus the protractor is a half circle little more top heavy do a few twirls and that thing can stay in motion, do to science. 

I miss the days of tracing a half circle when bored, drawing perfect triangles heck I miss having the need for a a protractor in life. When’s the last time you used a protractor? The protractor was/ is a very overlooked learning tool something so simple but so fun. God I gotta find mine or get my hands on a purple helix ultra flex protractor just to use it or know its there.

The work chronicles : PT5.5 still working with mind boggling people

Said it once said it a billion times. I’ve been here here to long and I’ve got to get out of here. Everyone has this in common a shitty  part time or shitty job and not making enough money.  Now I won’t really be making enough or more money. I went back to  school in January so making money but not really a lot since I’m working a lot of hours like I was in passed months. So only work my minimum of hours of 24. I planned on going back to 32-40 Hours a week to get my money not my funny up. But sales are down and store is dead. Times where it looks like where about to close or open how little or no body in there. It’s sad so if anybody needs my meat come to my meat department. But here’s where the mind boggling people come in I had 32 hours this week and the store manager like a coward decided to cut the hours and give us the schedule the day he’s off. Which technically he can’t do since you can’t change the schedule past Friday.  But the dumber part of it is that he d...
