Sounds like a good idea for a competition at Brickfest etc. Giving verbal or
written directions for anything is a good test of language and logic skills (and
good practice.) "You put the doohickey on top of the other thingy" just doesn't
cut it.

I also wanted to say congratulations to you and your co-winners. You deserve the
job. I hope that it turns out to be the dream job that we all imagine it to be.
Play well (AND get paid!)

Best wishes,

Ley
