I finished recording my class yesterday and thought I would have a pretty smooth rest of day. Nope. A client that I am teaching in October decided they want to schedule an hour "pre-training discussion". WTF? I got the sales guy involved and even he was like WTF? We're both worried this guy is going to try and pull one of those "use our data" bullshit moves. Now normally this wouldn't be an issue, tell him No and move on, BUT this class I realized yesterday, I don't have the material for. Our other guy was originally on the call and he's been teaching this material OFF HIS HEAD. Son of a bitch. So now I have to scramble, figure out what he's doing, how he's been teaching it, etc. His style has never worked for me. See the problem is, he and another guy we brought in initially to teach this topic, are not trainers. They're consultants and they approach it that way. They look at it in how to do I get paid more from these people. Not how trainers do it. We teach the material and move on. We have nice scripted material with nice scripted demos and we don't deviate. It's cookie cutter because it needs to be. But this guy has been just going from topic to topic. I don't have the same level of knowledge on the tool that he does which means I can't do that. I am a little pissed off that it was sold this way. It's also four days of  material crammed into 2. WTF one more time. We're meeting tomorrow morning 30 minutes before the client meeting. Let's see if we can make some peace with this. 

That was my major issue for the day. Is what it is.

Made a nice lamb burger for dinner. B had gnocchi. B had a rough day. Their meds are almost gone and they are starting to wean off. Some headaches, tiredness. Then like a dumbass, she pushed herself in the evening trying to do stuff with the axies. Finally got her back in bed. I know it's boring staying in bed, but dammit, you need to heal. Monday is her two week visit. Just stay healthy until then. Sheesh.

Today I have a full 9-5 class. Thank god. On material I wrote, I know well, and I am comfortable teaching. It will be a long but rewarding day finally.
