I don’t want to come across as a complete wuss, but the past few weeks I’ve been heavily into the whole training business, and it’s crazy insane busy at work. I’m training groups back-to-back all day long, and I’ve had days where I haven’t even had the time to write out the evaluations for the [...]
To make things like doing the laundry a bit more tolerable, sometimes I am watching tv-series that we’ve downloaded. I’ve been watching Eureka at the moment, which is highly amusing. Last night I was doing the same; we really have way too much laundry to be ironed & folded, so I got to work while [...]
…the happy relief that I feel at the fact that I’m kicking ass & taking names at training here at my new job. I perform well with groups, with individuals, the user training, and now even the admin training. I’ve just been doing very well. There’s still stuff I don’t know, but that’s okay. It’s [...]
And here I thought that they had a tendency to throw me before the lions at my last job. Hoo boy It’s a good thing that I really really like what I’m doing and that I know for a fact that even with my poor knowledge of the software I’m still a better trainer compared [...]
Somehow, for some reason, the weather completely turned around in the past week. It flipped from beautiful to horrid, and now we’re back to beautiful again right before Graspop. We’d intended to have a barbecue this past Saturday so we could combine watching the football match between Holland and Japan with a BBQ and then [...]
The recruiter that found me the job I’ve been interviewing for called me just a minute ago. He said that he got an email that they’re going to do me an offer today or tomorrow. I already know that the money won’t be great for this job, so I prepared for that – but honestly [...]
The interview went extremely well. Yay! I think that it was 20 minutes within the interview that the recruiter said that they were going to propose me to their client because I was a great candidate, and that now we’re going to take a look at that database that I’m going to train people in. [...]
In the time I started working for company D (we’re talking 2007 here) I bought a new snazzy suit in case I needed to go to clients and be all professional and stuff. However, my first project was at the shipping company where everyone walked around in flipflops, so I never really got to wear [...]
Walking the dog just now was an odd experience. It was completely quiet. There was no one on the streets, just me, Bodhi and a testdrive for Tram 19. There wasn’t even a breeze, so I could very clearly hear my own footsteps. And it got me thinking, as it usually does. It made me [...]
