Training
Training is going better than I thought it would. I thought it would be just a bunch of boring info, but it isn’t. They gave us a manual that is full of games and tips and stuff that may actually be useful. We have watched a few taped demo lessons and talked about what is good and what is bad. We do role-playing and sample stuff ourselves. It is good to get ideas from other people and get feedback too. Plus, a lot of the stuff we are doing is while we look at the textbooks.
To make it even better the trainer and other trainees are all really laid back and fun. We spend a lot of time joking and being silly, so it doesn’t feel like anything is bad. One girl I swear is a natural boke. One guy is beyond silly.
Two of my friends live in the city where I am training so we had dinner last night and hung out. The first night I went out with most of the other trainees. I feel bad for them though because a lot of them seem to be having financial difficulty whereas I seem to be just rolling in cash. I don’t know if I budget better (ignoring last summer haha). I know my last job was all about letting me roll in the cash, but I hope that I can still save money and all with this one. I’m sure I can, it just won’t be as much.
I’m really sleepy though. I haven’t been sleeping well, especially at the hotel. I can’t seem to stay asleep for very long so I keep interrupting my sleep cycle. More than usual. I’ll have to stay in another hotel once training is over because my apartment won’t be ready until the 10th. The company will apparently pay for most of the hotel stay but I will have to pay for part. My schedule has me starting on the 7th, so that kinda sucks. I think I have to go get a new schedule though because they called me about something last night. I’ll talk to them today.
