Spent most of today in an incredibly boring and redundant training course, having to watch really bad videos on the importance of maintaining privacy and the integrity of our organisation.

K's flight is leaving 12.30 so we'll be arriving at the airport about 10. So even if you don't get to come see him off I shall at least be able to accompany you back into town (although it looks like I'll have to get back to work ASAP, unfortunately, not even sure if I'll have the morning off yet). I'll be free all weekend apart from that, maybe have to do some uni work, might have to interview this chicka on the friday, things like that, but mostly free. Are you planning on staying with me? The party is Aya's, you met her a couple times, and her beau Ben, in Katoomba. If I'd known you were coming... But no, not the Newtown crowd, not really in touch with N at all these days.

I dug the fisk talk more than K, so I bags first reading!

all my training this year (federal govt) has been really.....weak.

[stark]

I want to know who trains the trainers?? what is training really??? who thinks its worthwhile??? i want to meet these people!

[robbersdottir]

what is really amusing - i am part of a graduate recruitment program where we keep getting told they are INVESTING in us with thousands dollars worth of training - and I keep feeling like telling them it is wasted money :)

i have another training day tomorrow - i dont really care, means I dont have to go to my desk (which is good)
