Sometimes you have a run in with a customer that ain’t worth having-- no matter how much money they pay.

Again, as an adult looking to find something to be outraged at, you are far overthinking the problem. You assume those kids don’t understand what that week’s math lessons were about. And therefore what any quiz/test would be about at the end of the week. All of them would have been coached all week long on what to look for in that quiz/test.

If the teacher was so wrong, explain to me how a majority of the students would have understood that question and been able to figure out the correct answer and provided the correct format? Getting one odd answer on one test/quiz in a room of perhaps 20 students is not indicative of a poorly written question or if a teacher is unwilling to admit they were wrong. Odd answers are just generally an isolated issue, unless this is a repeated problem for this student, which would be indicative of a deeper learning issues. Which is something we don’t know or can’t know in this case.

Your premise would hold value if you knew every student in the classroom got the question wrong or provided the same answer that is shown. But you have no idea if that’s the case.

There are other things in this world that deserve to be outraged about. This particular thing ain’t one of them.

You miss the understanding that the kids would have been coached everyday for at least a week to look for the fractions and compare them. And not be overly concerned with anything else. The kids aren’t stupid, they know that they have spent the week comparing fractions and that’s what the test/quiz would cover. I would bet very long money that the majority of the students got the correct answer and those that didn’t, simply chose the wrong answer. Still, you do get an oddball answer on occasion. Because young kids are cool like that sometimes. It’s a minor thing to correct as a teacher.

As an adult, you are reading far too much into the question because you want to be angry.

As a very old lefty, I wish my handwriting looked that good.

Boys in particular, (though girls are not exempt from poor handwriting), will have “poor” penmanship pretty much all through elementary school and even into Jr High. And fractions are generally introduced at the end of the 3rd grade school year. And based on the question, that’s the likely grade level that test was created for.

I would bet that most of the students in that class got the answer correct because they were coached to read the question correctly-- to look for the fractions and simply compare them. And anyone else that didn’t, simply chose the wrong answer. Still, you will get a surprise answer like that every once in a while because kids are cool like that. It’s worth a chuckle as you move on.

That’s Best Korea^TM to you!

I have used a pizza cutter to cut more than one pizza. I have also wielded a sword, (Ren Fair and fought a dual), and cut pizza with it. I have also field dressed a couple of deer and cut a few pizzas, (along with apples and sandwiches) with a Victorinox Classic keychain pocket knife over the years.

Of the 3 pieces of cutlery, I find the Victorinox Classic to be the most useful.

Gemini has popped up pnce since it became a thing. I simply clicked no and it’s gone away. So hopefully it stays away.

So, I don’t know what 3/4’s of those pictographs on the chart mean. Am I in the wrong place?

So would I need up upgrade to First Class to get that kind of service?

A simple google search, (which YOU could have done yourself), shows it’s abut 1 in 1.5 million miles driven per accident with FSD vs 1 in 700,000 miles driven for mechanical cars. I’m no Teslastan, (I think they are over priced and deliberately for rich people only), but that’s an improvement, a noticeable improvement.

And as a an old retired medic who has done his share of car accidents over nearly 20 years-- Yes, yes humans swerve off of perfectly straight roads and hit trees and anything else in the way also. And do so at a higher rate.

You are trying to judge the self driving feature in a vacuum. And you can’t do that. You need to compare it to any alternatives. And for automotive travel, the alternative to FSD is to continue to have everyone drive manually. Turns out, most clowns doing that are statistically worse at it than even FSD, (as bad as it is). So, FSD doesn’t need to be perfect-- it just needs to be a bit better than what the average driver can do driving manually. And the last time I saw anything about that, FSD was that “bit better” than you statistically.

FSD isn’t perfect. No such system will ever be perfect. But, the goal isn’t perfect, it just needs to be better than you.

I don’t know about how much fat it might take, but my 2 knee surgeries and both my deteriorating hip joints, (been searching eBay for a good used hip joint for cheap), tell me that standing for 2 hours is a painful idea.

Traumas are cool, but medicals are the true challenge to your skills. They can be intricate puzzles that can test you to the brink.

Yeah, there a few cars out there that do have safety glass rather than just tempered glass installed as side windows. But they are fairly uncommon due to the high cost and at least one engineer’s thought that safety glass might not be the safest thing in that application. Because it does make it more difficult to quickly gain access to an injured person if needed.

I think BMW has a couple models with safety glass for side windows. But it’s been a hot minute since I have needed to concern myself with such minutia.

I did forget to add the warning to that. That because it’s amazing what still works, you need to be very careful because of those things that still function. Things might look safe but a bump or just bad luck something decides it’s going to move or spin due to a stray electrical impulse or release of stored energy. And now you are part of the problem.

Scene Safety above all else!

Keep your Irons in hand, your head on a swivel, and be safe out there and have some fun!

Before cordless sawzall’s became a thing, every fire depadtment/rescue squad would make up a handle that you could attach a used sawzall blade to for cutting safety glass windshields. And they still carry them to this day as a backup. They are amazingly effective. You just need a hole to get started.

These days, every rescue/fire truck carries a cordless sawzall as the go to for such jobs. No special blade required.

You are thinking about Safety glass and not tempered glass. safety glass has plastic film laminated between some layers of glass.

Tempered glass doesn’t have that and when stressed at a small point, crumbles quite satisfyingly easy.

Tempered glass will break easily with either an impact style glass breaker or the automatic punch type. Most cars use tempered glass for side windows. As a retired medic who has done more than my share of nasty car accidents, I absolutely hate impact glass breakers like you find on “Rescue knives”. They almost always send broken glass shards all over my patient and I’m forced to kneel in said glass while working. The auto punch style tends to drop the glass shards more straight down minimizing having glass everywhere.

More Pro Tips from an old firefighter/rescue squad/medic: a $3.50US Harbor Freight auto center punch works as well for breaking glass as those fancy $50US glass breakers and is a worthy addition to your glove box. Toss a pencil and paper in there to take notes if needed also.

Safety glass cannot be broken with a glass breaker because it’s a laminated glass with a plastic film holding everything together. It can be sawed with something as simple as a dull reciprocating saw blade though. But you need to get a hole into it first. A fire ax is probably the go to tool for that, but a Halligan tool will also work. (Pro tip: A Halligan tool will solve most issues involving things that block your way.) Some cars do use safety glass for side windows.

Super Important Pro Tip: Always, always try before you pry. No matter how bad an accident scene might look, it’s amazing at what still works. Doors open, seat belts release, (in 20 years I never needed to cut a seat belt), and widows roll down, (even electric ones).

Final Pro Tip: Always, always be cautious when approaching a wreak. Stay away from the low side of a wreak and be super extra fearful of a car on it’s side. Look under the car before you get close. Look for leaking fluids. Stay up wind of an EV if you see any kind smoke. Those fumes can kill you. Be wary of undetonated air bags. Don’t stick your head into the car. About 100 cops are killed every year in the US because they get stupid and stick their heads into that situation.

All in all, the ultimate rule in rescue is “You are there to be a part of the solution to the problem. Don’t be stupid and become part of the problem.”
