Training

Bah. I find myself scheduled to go on a course in about 10 minutes that I should have gone on two years ago, only it didn’t exist then. Today, then, I shall be sitting and paying attention to see if all the ‘fixes’ and intuitive leaps I have used to coax answers from our proprietary application in any way resembles the methodology I should be using.

I live in hope –though I shan’t hold my breath – that I’ll be able just to pick up the mouse like a microphone and just start speaking, ”Computerrr…”.

Lose valuable geek points if you don’t get the reference.

ETA: Having taken Monday off, I find that I am a day out of synch this week, but bizarrely in the wrong direction. The course is tomorrow, not today. Duh.

I thought of Scotty doing that too, but could not remember the details. My hat is off to the fellow with the epee stuffed down his trousis.
