I was there an hour ago. January is the slow time of the season. Doing lots of cleaning/throwing stuff out. Music festivals coming up in a couple of weeks.
We did that. It ended up being my favorite show I've ever worked on-- the set was awesome. Revolving/sliding wasn't fun to build, but looked really, really cool once it was in place.
Right now! I'm in intermission waiting for the Alberta Country Legends concert to resume. Have you ever done a show that you don't need to do anything for? I think i changed the lights 4 times in the first half... I'll see how many I need to do in the second. lol.
Been there, done that, speakers coming in to talk about stuff in schools is best.
I have a deal that if the Speaker's getting paid for being there, so do IOh so true, so true. Especially since I'm the one who gets to miss class to turn the lights on then sleep the rest of the period. But I would never admit to the teachers & administrators.

Although it usually takes a couple weeks of reminding the admin to pay the poor tech, it happens.
So, I get to skip class, catch up on homework or web design from my laptop on the school network(Remote desktop to my computer), and get paid for it too
You just gave me a glimpse of heaven... ok, so I'm not big on web design, but I'm all for doing tech stuff to miss class, even if it isn't much, let alone getting paid for it.
I asked on Friday, and turns out I can't legally be paid for teching on school hours, it's a conflict of interests pulling me out of an education to tech >.<
Still gets me out of classes and gives me time to web design though
