Last week I attended a mandatory meeting I really didn't want to go to.
Durng part of it, the trainer is going through how to register on their website, discussing every click, drop box and option. He had screen shots on a powerpoint, and they we tiny, so the font didn't even look like it was in English.
25 minutes into this I raise my hand, immediately my old 'mate Danielle whispers "don't do it"
I get recognized.
Me: "about how large a block of time should I set aside to go through this process?"
Trainer: "oh, about 5 minutes"
Me: "5 minutes? Then why are you taking 30 minutes to explain a 5 minute process to us?"
Really happened, I have witnesses!

Let me guess... the room was silent with a few dropped jaws? What was the response?
A few days later one of the teachers at my school asked me "what was with that guy?" Kate was there too and knew he was talking about YOU!
Dude, I about peed my pants when I heard that story! I miss being in meetings with you. Seriously, sometimes somebody just has to say, dude, why are we sitting here for an hour learning what could take 5 minutes without the tutorial? Plus, it was billed as a freaking party beforehand?!?
