    I taught both Access and Filemaker back in the day. Once people got into it they really got into it!

        I actually really liked both, but I’m a giant data nerd. LOL.

        I was teaching Filemaker on 9/11. Day 1 was 9/10. Day 2:

        “Ok, everyone knows what’s going on, if you need to leave, no penalty, you can come back at any time and re-take day 2 for free…”

        Everyone stayed.

        Meanwhile, a co-worker of mine was in the second tower teaching a class when the first tower got hit.

        Word came down from the building that everyone should stay in place and he told his class quote: “Fuck that, everyone get out.”

        Everyone lived. We couldn’t find out for like 2 weeks because the cell phones weren’t working.
