Everyday Skills, Friday 2nd Period

Ever the picture of professionalism, Oz sat with his feet up on the desk reading the latest SkyMall magazine as he waited for his class to finish arriving, there was probably something in there he could use in a future class.

"There you all are," he said when he finally put the magazine down. "Morning all, for those of you I haven't seen before, I'm Oz, and I assure you that any story you may have heard about me are complete exaggerations. Well, maybe not all of them. Anyway, this class is Everyday Skills, and like the description on the sign up forms said I consider this class to be a life skills primer, covering some of the basics that everyone should know, you know, the kind of things that you'll need even after you've graduated, so we'll be covering a range of topics, like cooking, forgery, job interviews, bomb diffusion, sewing and mending, safe-cracking, to name a few."

Oz had a slightly different definition of life skills to most people.

"Now, I'm sure you're all sick of introductions by this point, but one of the most important skills you can have is to make a good first impression, so we're still going to do them, I want your names, classes, and one example of what you think an everyday skill is, whether you have it or not."

"Also I need a TA so if you think you're up for it come and see me after class."

[Have at it.]

The nice thing about only having two classes was that Juliet actually wasn't sick of introductions yet. She smiled as she spoke.

"Hi, I'm Juliet, I'm a junior, and I think knowing what colors and styles make you look your best is an important everyday skill."

"In terms of importance, or in terms of how good I think I am at it?" Juliet wanted to know.

"It's about a seven in terms of importance, and I'm a nine at it," Juliet decided. "There's always room for improvement."
