I am in a required computer class right now about to die of boredom. I think this instructor must have sold door-to-door yarn in an earlier life. If she says "bootlean" instead if boolean one more tiime, I'm going to scream...aaaggghhhh!!! OMG lady, I think we all know what a PDF is...duh.
Thanks for lstening.
She said bootlean again.
Please let us have a break, lady.
I'm taking her off my christmas list.

BWAAAAAAAAH! HAAAAAAAAAAAAH! HAAAAAAAAAAH!
To think some of us work in this crap environment full-time.
I fight the boredom monster every single minute of every day. "How many Gig RAM's do I have?" "It says 'error: file not found'. What does this mean?"
AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!
LOL...I would die. Now we are going over emailing. So far, I have gotten my bankiing done and bought a pair of shoes. This class is expensive.

Too funny! I remember that class! What a wasted afternoon!
I amused myself by helping the other non-technical students in the class.
At least we had a decent instructor who knew what he was doing, so in the end, I did learn how to do some cool things with Excel that I didn't know before.

Well, it's a good thing I'm computer literate as we're doing an online only part of the course for the next 2 weeks! However, considering I've been called like 5 times in the last 1.5 days by people who are just being impatient(The video won't load! How long have you waited? .....Um, 5 minutes....), I'm seriously considering telling the next person that I charge $50 an hour for tech support. We had a 2 hour required online orientation to the setup of the online material, but anyone who works a computer can follow the numbered steps!! LOL, I ended up working for my online english class during the entire oritentation. Type up a major virus and let it infect everyone in the class....(that's one way to get out of it).

I had a computer class like that. Paint drying would have been more of a thrill.

I did our class online :) I was going to test out of it, but it cost twice as much to test out as it did to take the class. Lecture on it may have officially done me in.

Man, I wish I could test out. That would be great, but everyone has to take this course. We had all just come in after taking our statistics final. Boy, she did not get us at our best...lol.
I'm sure I'll be posting more on this thread next Wed. when I have the class again.
While I was shoe shopping yesterday, I found a great website with some really cute Dansko clogs, though.
