Our office is in the midst of our annual “department training,” where we get together for 3 hours a day, 3 days a week for about a month to receive a daily lecture on ALLL the procedures for every job in the entire office. Yes, even the ones that you’ll never have to do! Sometimes, there is really good information shared about a change to a process, or a new program, but a lot of it is the regurgitation of things that we’ve all heard before. It can get extremely boring.
We have reached that stage for this year. Today’s training was the dullest yet, and I took the opportunity to compose a List of Countries That I Would Like to Visit, in no particular order (that is, the list is in no particular order; but actually, the sequence in which I visit these countries doesn’t make much different to me, either):
- Canada
- England
- Ireland
- Japan
- China
- Vietnam
- Australia
- India
- Brazil
- Cuba
- Czech Republic
- Poland
- Italy
- Spain
- France
- Germany
- Belgium
- Switzerland
- Morocco
- Algeria
- Greece
- Egypt
- Tunisia
- South Africa
- Russia
- United Arab Emirates
Better yet: What are your top five countries you’d like to avoid?
1. Iraq
2. Afghanistan
3. Lebanon
4. Texas
5. Georgia
No New Zealand?
Shame on you.
