My housemates are driving me nuts. They have a group study session every day in the kitchen and family room. It's really annoying because after a long day at the office and an hour at the gym all I want to do is make myself some dinner and watch TV. When my house is turned into the DC library I can't do that. I'm really starting to get aggravated because I can't unwind... and I feel like I can't ask them to leave because, well, it's their house too.
In other news... I have two highschool co-ops coming in on Monday for two weeks. I have to think of an interesting case study for them to work on. I'm thinking maybe something about why people would want to buy BlackBerry insteady of Palm Treo. More specifically it would be interesting to know why people would prefer instant email push rather than checking at intervals... or how important AES security is rather than normal encryption/decryption. It's kind of hard to know what level of market research these students are capably of. I doubt they have used Gartner or IDC before.
