Bright and early Monday morning, and my butt is in class, to finally get my alcohol certification redone. It’s beyond ludicrous that they couldn’t set up something special ahead of time as it was their own fault, but hey… whatever.

New trainer, however. This is the fourth time I’ve taken the class and the trainer is brand new.

Maybe a few months into her job, she tells us.  She also tells us that a.) She really doesn’t like speaking in front of large groups, so she’s grateful that we’re a small bunch.  Also that it’s her second… maybe third time teaching this class.

I tell you, I’m glad this was my fourth go-round, because her intro was -not- inspiring.  It was a small class of five people. Myself, a new cocktail waitress, and some other assorted positions. The bossfolks called for me about halfway through but not for anything horrible. Apparently before I was on forced vacation, I earned myself some perfect attendance company scrip good for use in the company cafeteria.  I guess that’s a yay.

The class passed without incident, and I was done with my exam and out the door will before the projected end of class, so that’s good. I can get back to work come Thursday.

• Closing Observations :
• The new trainer actually had coffee brewing this time.  That’s a definite improvement for our training department, let me tell you.
• Our trainer also forgot that we get a lunch break, until she was told.  I’d have skipped it just to be done earlier, myself, but hey, it gave me time to eat the soup I’d brought, so that’s all right.

Next up : Thursday night
