oh god you had it even worse than I did!!
I did work experience at a place in '93, and one of my jobs was to cutout letters and stick them onto a page so the plate could go to print
my first entire year of college was learning how to use a bromide camera and layout each color on 4 separate clear sheets ready for prepress - by the 2nd year they said 'fuck it, computers are here' LOL
I'm glad I learnt the hard way though ... i feel like I have a deeper understanding of the tools these days because of it ... but it did take me over a year before I could switch to imageready from manually cutting out slices in photoshop using guides and lots of cntrl c / cntrl n / cntrl v LOL
