I lost my cool yesterday. While the client may use us as a company in the future, it wouldn't surprise me if they requested a different trainer. I will be okay with that because I can't take people like this. "Lifers" who are happy working in cubicle hell. These are people who shouldn't be in the positions they are in. Most of the class was baby boomers who complained all day - "the screen is too small", "you're going too fast", "where is the right click button" kind of bullshit. Not to mention a complete lack of respect for my time and their coworkers time. Strolling in when they wanted, not paying attention then getting pissed at me because I was moving on. Well fuck you. I think my boss only had me do this group because he didn't want to deal with this bullshit. Not cool.
I got in at 6:30 yesterday because they wanted me to help them with some existing issues and they wanted free support basically. Thanks to their lack of skills and time management, I didn't get out of there until 5. It was 5:40 by the time I got back to the hotel.
Had dinner (tomato soup and mac n cheese), packed, watched some TV, and went to bed at 8. My flight today isn't until 11:30 but I don't want to sit in LA traffic and I am hoping to find an earlier flight home. I am heading out of here around 4 which should get me to the terminal by 6. Maybe there's an 8am flight that I can catch. Hell, even if I go to Seattle first and come back down. If not, I sit in the lounge and watch TV and play WoW.
When I get home, I need to do laundry, unpack, repack, and go to bed at 9 so I can be back at the airport. I will have been at PDX 4 times in six days. What the fuck? At least this next trip is personal.
