I work full time for a very large utility (the largest water company in the country) in their IT department. I have also been a Microsoft Certified Trainer for the last 12 years. I got out of full time training a few years ago, and now teach Microsoft Certification classes for the local community college part time. Typically Tuesdays and Thursdays, 6-9:30 pm, and the occasional Saturday, 8-4. They pay very good part time money, which allows me to buy more toy...er tools. Yeah, that's it, tools.
I am in class right now - my students are doing a lab. All of my students are career-changers, with very litte background in IT. Four seem to pick this stuff up and understand it VERY quickly. The other guy is...well....not gettin' it.
Last week we started our lessons on DNS. I stress to my students that in order to have a successful Active Directory, they MUST know DNS back and forth. I told them at the beginning that this was some of the most important material we would cover. Guess who decided that last week would be a good time to go to the Carolinas to go golfing?
He's back now, and is completely lost. And he admitted to me that he did not take the time to study the material on his own for the classes he missed. Oy, this student is killin' me.....
Wish me luck.

Domain Name System. And....there is always one in every class. Throw the bum out and tell him to come back when he's serious. You're gonna flunk him anyway. You just can't teach a pig to sing.

I could understand getting upset with the guy if he was taking off to visit his inlaws or going to a kid's soccer game, but he cut the guy some slack - he was taking time off to play GOLF, guys!

Dang! I forgot about that but I redeemed myself this past season. Of course, she did not hunt very much this season and only saw Bambi's and we don't shoot Bambi's.
We will have venison at the MMGG. I am making a recipe called "Bundle of Joy" cause thats what you feel when you taste it. Man, I/m gettin' hungry thinkin' about it. :thumbsup2

Well, since I can't make it to the MMGG, what is in the "bundle of joy" ?
