He he us Brits use both!

@Raven never gave me an explanation... The people around me say it's discrimination and that I vaguely have a Muslim name...

I just think that booth chick was a dumb bitch.

Sounds likely

Vaguely muslim

Gg

We do, but in Middle school they would use Metric and imperial in our science classes. I agree imperial is garbage but I have an easier time visualizing things in imperial

Agreed

Look... My name sounds more African descent than Muslim

But Americans aren't exactly great at guessing that either.

I'm willing to convert systems since no one outside of us uses it

I should have said that day that I was a Nigerian Prince.

It's a simpler system but growing up more with imperial has programmed me to be able to think in those measurements better if that makes sense

Being around that system normalizes it to you

It doesn't for I who was raised in metric system sorry :(

Why is 1 yard = 1.6~ meters is beyond me.

As long as we can convert measurements, we can understand each other though

@Jun bad check in system they shoulda let you in....awesome im guessing Algeria decent?!

And a foot is 12 inches because it was the standard Maker's foot length

@Raven Nah, I'm from French Islands like Martinique, Guadeloupe and Maurice.

Neat!

But yeah, being denied the Visa and losing the job was pretty... Devastating.

Metric is good for measurements under one inch Imperial's the system for anything else.

It was for me a chance to prove to the people around me that you don't need diplomas or connections to do great things and go far... College dropout here.

University of life experience is worth it weight in gold👍

Plus these daze Uni seem to shutdown free thinking

College is overrated depending on the major

That could have been my golden ticket to get a job quickly once I came back in France. Especially since I worked in Tourism.

College is useful for jobs essential for society to function and progress.

however today... Most college students just take non profitable and stupid majors that have no value or very little on the job market assuming it's not an oversaturated one.

But my underwater basketweaving degree!

With my minor in feminist dance therapy!

Lol
Human resources
Gender studies
Sociology et al

😂

Social sciences get to be called science because you can't prove it isnt

Not that you can prove it is either

I for one... Always advise kids these days to go to vocational schools.

I majored in history with the intention of becoming a teacher, and now I'm an electrician so yeah trades are the way

...

Teacher in history... Now electrician.

Strange curriculum

It's a large leap

Definitely.
