"Hmm, I haven't heard from John..."

I have to learn to use this software for work. You use it to make software demonstration files. For example, software often comes with tutorials that you watch to learn how to use the program – you watch a little movie on the computer in which the mouse runs around and clicks by itself and there are captions and usually narration.

Unfortunately, this software I’m learning doesn’t come with any instruction book and its tutorials aren’t real clear to me. Adobe doesn’t have any books available on it so I bought one that I found on Amazon. It cost $35 and it seems like someone just printed it out from a computer and had Kinko’s put a spiral binding on it.

The book is making sense, however. I am finally making progress. The worst part is that I don’t have time to learn the software at work, I’m going to have to learn it at home on my own time. Sigh. Could be worse. The software is interesting, I just wish I could be playing with it at work instead of at home. I’m glad I have a job, I haven’t anything significant to complain about.

Actually I do have something to complain about: here is another reason why I have no free time to communicate with friends and loved ones. Where is all my time going? A chunk of it is being spent on this software. At least I didn’t have to buy the software.
