Geekfest 20009
Posted: September 17, 2009 at 4:47 pm
Ive spent the week in Phoenix, Az for a MIcrosoft Project conference. Basically it is a geekfest and I love it. I forget how much fun it is to be around so many people who k ow so much more than I do about this tool I’ve been training/consulting on for about the last ten years I thought I was intelligent on Monday. On Tuesday I attended a session and realized I didn’t even know some of the words being used.
It’s one of the things I love about my job – there is no end to what you can learn so when I get bored with one piece of the technology I focus on another. But I’m sure you know that I’m not here to write about Microsoft Project be ause you really don’t care what I do.
But before I move on I can’t help but say it is unfortunate that Microsoft chose to make it easier for people to use this tool more inefficiently.Don’t glaze over and close your browser just yet hear me out.
Nevermind. My brain is fried and although I have a great analogy I’m just too tired to write it all out. Instead I’ll say that it is wonderful to be in a place where people acknowledge me as a professional and not just a mommy. I am incredibly blessed to be a full time mommy with a hobby that some would call work.
