today was the first actual training day for the fresh innocent trainees… guess i was the first to report among the members of the training center… so i check their attendance… and it was ok coz it was still early.. then i had my breakfast.. and when i return i ask my admin assisstant if all trainees were in… and she checked the list and two were still not in the training room… and ask her who were those two offenders… it was a girl and a guy… it was the first time to be later for the girl.. but for the guy… damn! it was again trainee MR! i just don’t know what’s he was thinking.. i even remind them to be early and yet he was still late and today he was late for almost an hour…tsk tsk tsk.. bad trainee bad… guess i had to start straigthening him up…this calls for  a serious talk… later this noon my co trainer Ms. MM  was feeling  bad so she had to go home and take some rest… thus i took over the class in the afternoon… it was fun and good.. again i had sat before the trainees having a small talk and giving them insights while they were taking exams… ehehehehehe well today was quite exhausting for the trainees and for me too… but in the end it was fun and lots of learnings..

preparation day 2

today was a very pressured and busy day for us. pressured because our boss is in the office. whenever he is around the atmoshphere seems so heavy… that their is always this fear in the air… well anyway it doesn’t matter with me… i had prepared five documents for his review and signatories… all pertains to the opening of the training… knowing that he will be out of the country by nextweek… i prioritized all urgent matters that needs his attention… i got 3 approvals and 3 pending items but it just need a little modification and it’s perfect… on the other hand Ms. M is preparing the Training Room… she started with a layout of the tables, chairs, lockers and cabinets… and it was quite ok…

preparation day 1

today is the first day of preparation for the next batch of training… it was last friday that the previous training concluded… now we have two weeks to get things done before the training start…  all in all we have a total of 17 in-house trainees and 5 external ones… we have all their profiles… arranged their place of stay and constantly contacting them…. this morning me and my staff had a 30 minutes meeting, talking about the preparation especially the opening ceremony and the training room… ahh.. the training room, the battle ground of great wars… the witness of all hardships, sufferings, pain and tears… and at some time a place of comfort, safety and fulfillness… a place where learnings are born, a place to commune with others, a place to share and build relationships… a place where your dreams can come true…
