      Posting on ML and contemplating joining the Toastmasters, per @Katie 's recommendation.

      I've always wondered if Toastmasters would be any good. I know what it is but have never seen it in action. I present often at other things so kind of ignored it because I get more mileage from other venues.

      I'm already a rock solid speaker, as you can attest to. I just enjoy public speaking and don't get to do it very often. I thought this might be a chance for me to do a little refining? Maybe? We'll see. I've been speaking in front of crowds of 100+ since 5. No lie or exaggeration there. So I'm pretty comfortable speaking to a crowd. Used to blow away professors in high school.

      Heck, at 5th grade D.A.R.E graduation, I was told by several people the MAYOR of our little town couldn't hold a candle to me. Yeah. In sixth grade, when I didn't win the Oral Pexton award again, I was told by all the 6th grade teachers that I actually was selected but they were told I couldn't win it two years in a row. LOL

      don't you use windows IP PBX like 3CX

      No. We can if customers want to work with it. We've have experience with 3CX but it is not cost nor feature equivalent to Elastix, FreePBX, PIAF and others. The use if Windows as a base severely limits it's applicability.

      Don't get me wrong, personally I'm an engineering school drop out. But the schools I attended didn't see Civil as a core engineering discipline.

      We need to get another one of these scheduled. Maybe one in Europe this time?

      That may be difficult for some members over in that general area post Brexit...

      One of the major components of Brexit was the banishment of fruit-based meetups, so y'all might be S.O.L....

      I use a sling bag all of the time. I can fit a tablet and a ultrabook if necessary.

      I just got a ticket for Ohio Linux Fest. I'll only be able to attend Saturday, but looks like some interesting things happening.

      https://olfconference.org/ if anyone else is interested.

      Well, after the conference, I think it's time to give tower another look. A lot has changed, and it should be stable now.

      Favorite thing so far is the easy of having everything synced with my desktop. So I can move to the couch or out on the deck and not miss a beat on Skype, lync, email even web pages I had last open.

      I remember I have a lots of intern working with me for the past 3 years. So i used to teach them the following.
      1.) Introduction to our environment. Since we have many operators in production area i explain to them regarding our process.What they are doing, the does and don't.Very simple but i am sure they will have an idea what exactly we are doing here.

      2.)Basic introduction to our system, OS,network,etc.

      3.) I will give them an instruction or documentation then later on i will ask them to try,or to follow the procedure in documentation.

      4.) After few 2 or 3 days if i am confident that they can manage to answer basic questions from users i will let them assist operators.

      NTG is looking for 3 willing interns to work in our lab environment.

      As opposed to an unwilling intern?

      Did you check your local community college? They may have a degree path that requires an internship.

      "Local" is one of the issues. NTG HQ is very remote. The "local" community college doesn't have any programs that would directly correlate. There are colleges farther away, but they are pretty far. Being rural has major disadvantages.

      I'm with you on Google Apps. It's a good product but it is very limited and doesn't have the look and feel of modern apps. I don't like using Gmail either. It's unnecessarily quirky and busy. Google doesn't make things as fun to use or as easy to use as they could.

      I think that the Chromebook model is better than it seems. Only problem is is that businesses are struggling to adapt to it. But it is a business problem and failing, not a Google one. Google supplies the tools, business can't grok them.

      In the same vein, the Linux world has everything businesses need and have for a decade or more and yet almost no businesses have cares to go down the 100% Linux path regardless of the massive savings and ease of use once the transition is over.

      It was a cute idea but it was never clear which one was supposed to be the one that they were recommending.
