Folks.....I gotta tell you.....In my opinion Janna got slapped TWICE here - once (mildly) by her own no-show students and then (big-time) by a rotten, no-good #@%^&* thief!nwscubamom wrote: We had a GREAT time, even though it wound up being only three of the 7 who said they'd come! :(
A humongous thanks to Brian at Tacoma Scuba for getting this set up and letting us use his classroom. AND ordering pizza!
Bad news - on the way home to the Portland area, stopping for gas at Fort Lewis, I realized my purse was missing. As we started searching the van for it, we discovered I was missing WAY more than just the purse with the cash, (your $$ got stolen, Calvin!) credit cards, Drivers license etc. Laptop, digital camera, Palm pilot, portable DVD player and speakers, etc. About $2000 worth of stuff in all. And the joy of worrying about identity theft now too.
- Janna :(
7 people confirmed they were coming and only 3 showed???? Wow! I think that a few folks owe her an apology. She is an outstanding professional who delivers a great product and she deserves far better than that. The members that missed it missed something really unique and special. Hopefully, Brian didn't order pizza for 7 also. I know that sometimes unavoidable things occur, but SURELY not to that many of the folks that were signed up.
I pray that the Police can somehow work a miracle and that Janna will have her things returned to her, but I also wonder how likely she will be to give presentations through NWDC in the future.
Everey now and then I get accused of saying what I'm really thinking.....I know that it will probably piss some people off, but it's just my .02 worth.
