Unusual request for one of my computer classes
I was working at my desk earlier this week when switchboard forwarded a phone call to me. It was a gentleman with a request concerning the PowerPoint class I will teach on Thursday of this week. Here's what the man said:
"Yes, sir, I am enrolled in your PowerPoint class for Thursday and I have a favor to ask. I suffer from a condition where I have a difficult time paying attention and I sometimes fall asleep"
Narcolepsy, I thought as he continued....
"I was wondering if I could videotape your class so that I can play it back at home and review the points I might miss in the event that I fall asleep?"
I kind of stammered in my response. I never had anyone make such a request before. It took a minute for me to compose myself and deliver my response which was a tentative yes provided that he did not shoot any library patron and kept his camera pointed in the direction of my projection screen.
What's next? A song and dance request?
