Sometimes There Is Nothing to Do But Laugh

So I had to teach Intro to Photoshop this afternoon.

First off, I am not an expert in Photoshop–far from it. I can do the basics, but any of the more esoteric stuff? Forget it. But that’s okay usually, because this is a very basic class.

So I walk into class, we open up the program, and suddenly I discover that my boss has upgraded the version of Photoshop from CS to CS3.

And he didn’t tell me.

And he upgraded every computer BUT the instructor’s computer–mine.

And I have never worked in Photoshop CS3.

At that point, there was nothing I could do but apologize to the class and tell tell them we’d just have to muddle through as best we could.

Really, when something that ridiculous happens, there’s nothing you can do but laugh and hope people are going to be understanding. Luckily, the classes are free, so they were more than willing to be understanding.
