workaday Wednesday
Oct. 11th, 2023 06:59 amSOMEHOW I've ended up scheduled for a TWO HOUR training this morning. (I totally brought it on myself, which adds a sprinkle of humor to the whole situation.)
To be fair, the training is 1) at my own request; and 2) potentially useful. The trouble is that sitting in my chair for TWO HOURS is not my idea of a fun time. How will I refresh my snack supply? How will I take my laundry out of the washer and hang it on the rack to dry? What about my morning coffee???
All of which means I am planning for this two hour training as if it was a serious excursion. Gotta get all my supplies (and back-up supplies) within easy reach of the work computer. I foresee almost the entire first hour of work today being dedicated to prepping for the second and third hours. (PS: This is why NO MEETINGS ever need to be two hours long.)
