Teaching/Training: May 2008 Archives

Kimber (aka FabGirl on twitter) was laughing about my students I teach in these computer classes. Usually they're all male, but occasionally i get female students. Occasionally those females are total hotties.

One time, back when I was teaching Tru64 UNIX classes, I walked into the office of a company I used to do a lot of work for in suburban Boston. The office manager greeted me in the office and said I was in classroom #1 (of three) that week. I go drop my stuff down in that classroom, and there's this stunning, 5'2" or so blonde in short shorts. No way, thinks I, is this gal here for UNIX class. I figured the office manager got it backwards, and one of the web statistics classes was in #1 and I was further down the hall.

No, office manager says, that's indeed your class. I said, so, should I tell the blonde to move to the other room? No, I'm told, blonde is a UNIX system administrator.

That morning most definitely restored my belief in a benevolent Supreme Being. :-)
