Law firm hires this pilot fish to do the firm's technology training -- mostly teaching classes, but also handling "as needed" assistance to users.
"I was asked to help one attorney with a PowerPoint presentation she needed that day," fish says. "She opened it up and needed to make changes to the text.
"Knowing that PowerPoint and Word have a great 'relationship,' I sent the presentation to Word, opened it in Outline View and made the changes. I then sent it back to PowerPoint with the changes.
"The attorney actually started crying. She said she had spent hours changing each individual slide. Needless to say, I immediately had a friend."
