Computers & Fun #4 6/14 Wednesday Afternoon - Computer Lab
The computer lab is set up like an office today, the seats moved apart so each student has their own cube-shaped area. Abby is sitting up front, her usual white labcoat traded for a oversized men's suit jacket.
"Good afternoon my worker bees! Today we're going to be learning the two most important things office workers need to know. How to use offline computer programs like word processing and how to hide the fun stuff from their bosses." Abby ran through a quick description of programs like Word, Excel, notepadand their mac counterparts that the mun doesn't care about because her soul belongs to Bill Gates..
"Of course then you have the fun stuff. Solitaire, Spider Solitaire, Freecell, Minesweeper and my personal favorite..." Abby leaned forward and grinned, "Paintbrush! There's just something about making really crappy pictures with a limited color choices that speaks to my soul." She flipped her laptop around to show a couple of her own pictures. "This first one here is my old boss, if he decided to turn goth. This one is a duck." Abby shrugged. "I like ducks."
"So it's 3:00 on a Friday afternoon. You've got two hours before you can clock out and nothing left to do. You need to pick one of the fun activities to play around with but beware of the boss. If he catches you goofing off you might get fired." Abby straightened her jacket and nodded to them. "In order to not get caught you need to work on being sneaky. Alt-tab will get you to another window quickly, hitting minimize with your mouse, or the ever popular turning your screen off and pretending to be reading a report. Come up with a way to get back to your work screen and try not to get caught, and those of you who make it through class without letting me see your fun program get a prize!" Abby held up a box of caffeine-laced candy.
"Oh and I almost forgot! The school is having an art fair on Friday. So if any of you want to use this time to make an art project in paint...I think that would be cool." She grinned and shook the box of candy. "So cool that you might even get two packages of the awesome candy."
