Oh Training.

I have tomorrow morning training and then next Tuesday and then, bizarrely, training on December 27th. But I'm almost done with training for the week, at least.

We had the Good Trainer today, which was a nice surprise, but it was still pretty dire. Today's session was like learning about soil nutrients after spending a couple of weeks watering plants. It was just a lot of really dense information and there was no real way to make it interesting.

No offense to people who find soil nutrients interesting, I'm just saying, it's a lot more data than I've been getting.

I was kind of glad I had training rather than work, because it meant I got to wear jeans and a t-shirt. My laundry service picks up my laundry on Saturday (in theory; lately they have forgotten a lot) and drops it off clean and pressed on Monday. This morning I opened my laundry bag to get out some clothes and was startled to find that the laundry inside was not my laundry. They have since rectified the problem, but it left me without much in the way of business casual to wear today.

The other bag did have some totally cute ruffled tank tops in it, though.

Other Sam and I rode home from work together today, in part because her El stop is close to mine, in part because she only had two bucks on her card and so I buzzed her through on my farecard, which allows me a few free passes a day along with my limitless rides. Plus there are certain trains and parts of town where traveling in pairs is just kind of wise.

We're doing lunch with a mutual friend on Thursday, the woman who clued her into the job and helped her get it, who also happens to be one of my work friends who used to stop off at the reception desk and entertain me all the time. Other Sam is a period clothing/SCA/historical fiction nut, I'm a SFF/cult-TV fan, and our mutual friend is a huge Anime lover, so it'll be like some kind of miniature Comic-Con with sandwiches.
