I am not a very patient person. It’s something I work on — trying to be more patient with others. Having such young siblings helps. Still; when driving, I like to go fast and make frequent use of my horn/middle-finger. I like fast food (or microwavable if I’m at home). I use [CodeRush](http://www.devexpress.com/?section=/Products/NET/CodeRush&ref=blogs.remobjects.com), [FinalBuilder](http://www.atozedsoftware.com/finalbuilder/?ref=blogs.remobjects.com), and other tools to greatly improve efficiency.

Of course, the one thing worse than waiting is waiting when I shouldn’t have to. Being a “computer guy” I am often asked for help on various tasks, usually unrelated to anything I might be considered expert in. I don’t mind helping — I enjoy it — but ***for the love of eternity, why won’t users learn the shortcuts?*** Especially after having used the same software for years!

If you are reading this and have been using computers on a regular basis for more than a year — learn the shortcuts – especially the common ones – if you haven’t already! If I see one more person fumble for the mouse only to select File/Save instead of pressing Ctrl+S or worse; Edit/Copy, Edit/Paste instead of Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V then I’m going to go nuts! Check your products documentation, or just read the menu’s you are so fond of.

It’s been a long week. Oh geeze, it’s only Tuesday!
