Donkey

So I did get a job. Of sorts.

I'm going to be teaching a Linux class at Rasmussen College, where Dave used to work. It's a weekly class, 4 hours of lecture and practical work with about 10 students. I'm really excited to be teaching again, and looking forward to 'brushing up' on my Linux skills.

I did however have to do a 10 minute sample lesson for some of the teachers and advisers there. Now 10 minutes isn't very long so Dave suggested I teach them what I do best. Ordering drinks. In Irish.

They seemed to enjoy it, they had a nice 'brogue'! and everyone seemed to laugh a lot, which I guess worked cos I got the job!
