Part five in the BossLady series. (One, two, three, four.) Remember, this was a woman who made a point of telling me she “almost had a master’s degree in Computer Science,” and had in fact been the official webmaster for the business before I came along, and yet basic HTML was apparently a nifty, shiny new thing I introduced her to. Not shown in the above comic: It took me forty-five minutes to explain anchors to her. And naturally, the very next day she was back to haranguing me about the filenames because she tried these newfangled anchor thingies and they “didn’t work.”
On that note, I’ve come to realize that the BossLady stories aren’t really suited for this “illustrated conversation with no additional context” format, since a lot of the humor in her kookiness came from things that were happening rather than (or in addition to) things that were said. However, I really want to share more of these anecdotes, so be on the lookout for a new feature on CMcL in the near future. Most likely, this will consist of my actual journal entries from that time (cleaned up and edited to remove personal information, of course). Some tidbits to look forward to include:
- Hurricane preparedness;
- Feng shui;
- Astral JavaScript; and
- Realtors gone wild!
