Author Tom Limoncelli has collected his Time Management for System Administrators videos in one place. Watch the videos, read the book.
System administrators have abnormal time and task management needs. Tom does a great job of addressing those along with the normal time management stuff.
I recommand Time Management for System Administrators as a supplimental book for my system administration classes and plan to start using some of Tom's videos in class.
Went to see Rafe Esquith's talk at ChangingHands tonight.
In the end the place was jam packed. Employees kept pulling out chairs for those standing around. Before the talk they'd filled in all the empties. It was great to see so many people turn out for his presentation.
We weren't disappointed. Rafe's a great speaker. He's got lots of interesting stories from 24 years of teaching. He also brought along an ace. Well, several of them.
Rafe brought several of his students from the lady two years. They played music before the talk started. After Rafe talked for a while he turned the stage over to the students for performance time. They really seemed to enjoy what they were doing. That coupled with doing a good job of the performances made for great entertainment. If one looked closely, one could see it was also an opportunity to learn...
Rafe Esquith will be at Changing Hands in Tempe Thursday, the first of February at 19:00!
Rafe is a dedicated, hard-working teacher who believes in his students.
See why to show up.
Rafe Esquith will be at Changing Hands in Tempe Thursday night!
Rafe is credited with being an outstanding teacher who inspires his students to greatness. His first book, "There Are No Shortcuts" is a fantastic, inspiring read. I've already bought 20 copies of it and have just purchased another 10 because I keep giving them away to educators. One book recipient now requires teachers to read "There Are No Shortcuts" before she'll agree to be their mentor.
