Random memory

When I was at school, my father worked part-time writing computer software for the school to help pay for my tuition.

At one point, he was writing a program that printed out report cards, since they wanted to change the format or something, and he used my name for test data while developing (e.g. to make sure that things line up correctly, etc.)

At the end of the school year, I heard that they had a little difficulty getting my test data out of the system so that it would print out my real grades rather than the straight-A version :)

Heh. Being a teacher, my dad often needs to print out report cards for his classes as well. I often helped him type in the grades. It was usually quite boring, though.
