  • I made the trainer facepalm!

    My trainer at <package service> is pretty cool. She has a lot of energy and tries to keep us alert and focused so overall, the training is fun. I also had the opportunity to make her facepalm with this little gem:

    TRAINER: So you may be asking, 'What is an egress?'."
    ME: It's a female egret!
    I have a...thing. Wanna see it?

      Eh, the trainer was a little out there anyway.

          reminds of when one time in class the teacher said "Can I have everyone's attention" and I said "no" and he just sighed, looked at me and then continued.

            Reminds me of a American Lit class I had back in HS.

            I do not remember how the subject of mummies (Egyptian kind in tombs) came up but the teacher said:
            "When was the last time you saw a mummy???"
            I answered " "This morning when I left for school."
            I'm lost without a paddle and headed up SH*T creek.

              Had another one yesterday. The trainer loves zombie movies, shows, etc. We got off on a tangent and started talking about different zombie types. We talked about walkers, hunters, and runners.
              ME: But you don't have to run from the zombies with plungers.
              TRAINER: (suspiciously) Why is that?
              ME: Those are the plumber zombies. They're after DRAAAAAAAAAAAINS.........

                    I've never heard that song before, so sadly no. Well, that and it would cost me $2500 and my job if I did bring my phone in.

                    The different zombie is an ongoing joke my friend and I have. In adition to plumber zombies:

                    Vegetarians (Graaaaainss)

                      2. If you're consistently getting results you don't want, change what you do.
                      3. Deal with the situation you have now, however it occurred.
                      4. Accept the consequences of your decisions.
