Anyone else at Visual Studio Live! Conference?

What a great day

I may be a Matt Might fan boy (according to my SO I am), but here has two great articles about boosting productivity. The one that helped me the most was"crippling" technology.

Serious question: should I learn PHP?

I use the Microsoft stack at work, but I'm thinking about branching out a little. What do y'all think?

I used to work in a call center for a local hospital.

One night, all of our lines are swamped. Literally no time for a break between phone calls, +15 minute wait times. I answer the next call:

Me: "Its a marvelous Monday at AskIT, how may I help you?"

Doctor: "This is Dr. [Noone Care]. I need you to fix my password now."

Me: "Absolutely! You should be able to enter a new password now."

Doctor: "MY HANDS ARE NOT FOR PASSWORDS, MY HANDS ARE FOR SURGERY!"

😩 So glad I don't work for doctors anymore. Oh and the best part is, he had selected the general phone queue, rather than the doctor queue (~3 minute wait time instead).
