New Class.

This week, I taught a new class for the Arlington Public Schools. I now teach night school for adult education.

The official title was "Advanced Functions in Excel"

It was awesome. The computers were antiquated, but they had most of what I needed.

The participants were great. One is learning new skills while between jobs, one teaches basic Excel, and one was a CPA.

They each got different things. The woman between jobs learned about vlookup, the Excel instructor now knows "if", and the CPA can do index/match.

Next time: Pivot Tables.

Pretending.

"Humans have more important things to do than pretend to be machines." -- The Unincorporated Man

I am so stealing that quote.
