Work imitates Life

I have The Coolest Job at Microsoft (although about 50,000 other Softies would probably claim that for themselves), managing our Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT) program--10,000 of the most interesting, smart, talented and dedicated individuals you should ever be so lucky to meet. Actually the job itself is probably pedestrian by Microsoft standards--it's the MCT community and the impact they have around the world that makes it so cool. Of course I'm biased--my first “real“ job was being an MCT, most of my friends are trainers, and I've pretty much spent my entire adult life in this business.

Lord help me if our products ever become simple.
