When students walk in late from the break (lunch or smoke, but especially smoke), say, "...and that's the most important thing you'll need to know about <training subject>. OK, let's keep going, the rest of you will have to catch up."

Karen Black in Toronto, has missed lots of cool things about <training subject> in her career

For the past five years, each April Fool's Day, I've published a special edition of my Quick
Training Tips newsletter, entitled "Terrible Training Tips!" What's made it so wonderfully
terrible is the many contributions by trainers, teachers, tech writers,
and web developers.

April Fools Day 2003 is coming up fast. In order to make this year the worst ever, I need
lots of terrifying contributions. Please email me your most awful
tech writing hints, training advice, diabolical e-learning ideas, or
horrible presentation techniques.

If you need inspiration, please read last year's horrifying edition at
http://www.quicktrainingtips.com/AprilFool-2002.htm

To add to the fun, I'm giving away prizes to the folks who send in the three worst, most
terrible training tips.

Pretty please send me your worst, most nighmarish tech writing, teaching,
training, or e-learning, or course development ideas. And then on
April Fools Day we can all laugh and shudder together.
