Trade Show Workshop Today. I Rocked It.
My company is running a trade show in town today and tomorrow. Today was hands-on workshops, tomorrow is main-stage presentations. I ran the afternoon workshop today. We were SRO- a Standing-Room Only crowd. I guided 40+ people through technical exercises, explaining not just the technology but also the motivation (what real-world problems the tech solves), the history of prior attempts that these supersede, and shared a number of colorful stories, some of them serious and others humorous. If I do say so myself, I rocked it.
And now (several hours later) I'm tired. It take a lot of energy to be "on" like that for several hours. Plus, my feet are killing me. The stylish shoes I wore today are, alas, not the most comfortable for trade show work. Tomorrow it's back to my Ecco plain-toe Oxfords. Though tomorrow I'll also be wearing a tuxedo. That's right... it's time for the Butler to serve!
