Impressions from a First-Time Attendee

Juanice ReedI had lunch with first-time attendee Juanice Reed today. She's an RPG programmer with National American Insurance Company in Chandler, Oklahoma. Juanice has been programming since 1980 and is excited about being at her first COMMON. She says the very first thing she learned here was why . . . By that, she means, even though she has known about, went through instruction for, and understood things such as WDSc, she didn't really know why she would want to use it or how it fit into the context of her work. After attending a session on WDSc, she says, "Now I have a reason for why I should use this." Juanice adds, "These instructors know their stuff, and it's great to learn it from somebody who knows so much and has already done it and has tried these things and knows what works and what doesn't work."
