Financial Aid for Tuition Not received despite sending FAFSA?

Hi all, heading back to RCC at 36 to retake a rando class I got an F in to help improve my chances for PA school. (Online Spanish).

I work a shtty job and filled out FAFSA and got a SAI of -1500 meaning I get max student aid? Pell Grant said nothing.

The 5 unit class I registered for has a price of $298.

Im not sure if Im qualified or if it just takes time? Am I missing something?

I have an F from a non-related elective in JC. I've never sat in this course for one day?

Reviewing transcripts from JC and my BA program and at the very bottom of my JC transcript, I have an F for an online Arabic course...

....I don't even recall signing up or sitting in an Arabic course, and I have never had an intent nor interest in even studying that language.

How do I even fix this? Do I just take an Arabic course at that school to fix it?

[california] Concerned About "MoonLighting" History when applying for police academy

Looking to go back into police applications. Previously denied by CHP and LAPD due to moonlighting (aka working multiple jobs remotely). CHP denial was the worst since their application process tracked every keystroke. They BI even rejected me for being 5 minutes late for my college job back in 2013; I'm 35 now.

This is my only real option right now with my degree and skills because living here is so expensive. I work in two project management roles.

I want to apply to other agencies in the greater LA area and am looking at the OC Sheriff's as an option. I'm serious about policing since, as I get older, I'm getting concerned about stability and long-term growth. Thankfully, I don't have a family (yet), but I just want to set myself up for financial and career success.

My main worry is I'll go through the application process again, only to get rejected. The past three years I've held a strong record at work but there that issue again: you're working two jobs.

[Rant] When Buyers Want Something New for Used Prices

I know the best option is to just ignore and move on, but the worst is when they turn into a tough customer during a meet to buy. I had a customer buy a computer monitor and we had agreed on the price, meeting place, and time.

When we get there, it literally turns into a swap meet negotiation out of nowhere. "Why are there scratches? How come it's faded here and there? The HDMI cable is kind of loose, isn't it?" and my favorite, "Does it work?"

Ladies and Gents. You are buying someone's trash because you see it as treasure. We're trying to get rid of this stuff while making some profit. The last thing on my mind is trying to screw a stranger over something I'm trying to get rid of at a modest price. If you can't trust me with all the necessary photos and videos on top of a practically perfect seller rating, I don't know how to convince you.

After 15 minutes of this BS, I left. Thanks for making me waste gas.

Orbit Sprinkler System: Assigning Stations to Sprinklers?

I'm not sure if I need to call my gardener since I'm not that handy around the garden, but this is stumping me.

https://imgur.com/a/fC7j1Jh

I'm familiar with setting up my watering schedule by time-frequency and station, but how do I assign sprinklers 1,2,3, etc to a specific station on the Orbit dial?

The reason I ask is I DONT want my backyard planters to be watered on the same frequency and days that my lawn is on their respective programs. The hedges and palms are getting larger by the week, and I need to slow their growth.

So far, it looks like only stations 1, 2, and 3 have a combination of sprinklers assigned. 4,5, and 6 do not work when I enable all. Current Setup for summer is as Follows:

  • Program A: All days at 0500 hours
  • Program B: All days at 1400 hours

Aussies of /r/rugbyunion : what do people have to know about Australian for RWC2027?

Selection is about a week away and am currently saving up for a two week stay to see England and a QF match.

What's something that a rugby fan first and tourst second should absolutely know about arenas, pubs, popular destinations, etc? I will be going with the lady but sadly she is not a rugby fan. She's in it to say she went to Oz if anything.

What's one (or several) things that you surprisingly agree with Charlie Kirk, Candace Owens, Matt Walsh, etc.

Not sure if I should be asking on a moderate politics sub, as I myself am center-left (mainly left) leaning.

I didn't really know about Kirk until his assassination, and I fell into this rabbit hole of crazy conservative views, most of which I find dangerous to all sides of the spectrum.

However, I can't help but admit that some aspects are only logical and make sense for policies, laws, etc. The key example that I usually find myself with is the whole notion of what a man or a woman is or gender fluidity. I feel that Kirk et al have become champions in easy argumentative debates over these topics simply because the answer has been present for literally centuries on defining what a man and a woman are. That's just one example, agree to disagree I suppose. But what's one, several, or none that Dems have found themselves surprisingly agreeable to or convinced of?

"Who defines the Definition of Done?" Starting to get confused about Scrum.org's reasoning on questions

I'm planning to move from my county in the next year or so and plan to PNO one of my vehicles since I don't use it anymore. I only want to keep it since it keeps my insurance low. There's nothing wrong with the car aside from a fog lamp that's wonky; it actually works quite well.

The issue that I have is, if it's in PNO, how exactly do I sell it if I can't meet in public or at halfway points? Is the obvious answer to have the person meet me at my home? I'm concerned about this since last time I had an uncomfortable moment and almost needed to practice my 2AR.

Also, how do I warm up the car if I don't have a trickle charger? I need to drive at least a mile to keep the battery from dying no?
