Not tutoring is a good thing

144 words.

Today I recall mentioning to Julio after he had asked me for the 50th time “where are we at with this config file” that it was rather difficult to code in the insanely complex instructions he had asked for (I’m paraphrasing what I said a little :). He seemed rather baffled about it, perhaps thinking that asking for 20 sets of six or seven 5-digit random letter-number combinations was a breeze, but he wandered aimlessly away as he was distracted by something else.

I also had the extreme priviledge of using a cheap, noisy Radio Shack microphone to record temporary voice narration for the programs, so that imagination-challenged Julio will not have to have his brain mangled so badly from having to hear different words spoken than what is written on the screen.

Thankfully, at least I did not have to do any tutoring.
