Notes:
-When exporting the customer list to MS Excel – we had a request to show the customers contact. This is actually a non-required one-to-many relationship between customers and contacts. Nonetheless, we had a request to merge the options for output into Excel.
-Another option to the above request is to use the customer tax id field. It has its own corp-wide setting name that could be changed to “primary contact” or something like that.
-We always paint a positive picture of database logic and one-to-many relationships. What are the cons to the model? One is details and things spread all over. Another is education and helping people know what is what and where or how things are stored (education). Complexity and dynamics are some other possible cons. However, if the education is there, it allows for all of the positive possibilities as well. Without the education, it just looks complicated.
-When we first started, here were a few things that helped me:
o Stuff things in big Pringles cans.
o It is okay to have a disconnect as long as it comes together in the end. (Perfect match – everything is in line. Slight disconnect – but it comes back together over time.)
o My job is not to make things balance – my job is to show you what is there or how it got recorded.
o Open entry, open exit, you decide the level to play at.
o Put it out there, beat on it, push it, and then circle back if needed.
-Use the map and interactive map layout when teaching. Make it very big, so people can read it while sitting in their seats (while taking a class).
-On LTF – what if we took out the trick sub menus or allowed a play all. I was also thinking that people may enjoy the credits more than the instruction as the default text verbiage. Make the credits flow with the clip and allow the instruction to be non-linear and an extra click.
-We could also use YouTube for LTF and combing all of the clips together to form one big 5-10 minute clip per trick. This may be nicer for persons who go online to view things.
