I have tried to update this SEVERAL times, but for some reason the site won't let me. I will be amazed if this goes through, but I thought I'd try it again....
This week I had to go to WOM training....
I was PAID my regular 40 hour shift (3PM - 11) to..........
1 Go to a class everyday and make paper boats, help my "team" to get across an alligator "Invested" river, use our bodies to make rope shapes with my team members with our eyes CLOSED, assemble and reassemble ink pens (over 500 all together), and make 298 Lego robots.
2. Listen to lectures off and on during the week, between "fun" activities.
3. Had 2, 15 min breaks and 1 hour lunch on Mon, Tues, & Fri. Left at 11 on Mon & Tues. Had 2 half hour breaks with 1 hour, 20 min lunch breaks and left at 9:40 on Wens & Thursday, and on Friday we left at 8:30.
4. spent my hour/ hour 20 min. dinner breaks roaming the mall,Browsing in Books-A-Million, Target, and Best Buy, reading in my Jeep, and drinking Starbucks (The Spiced Pumpkin Lattes are EXCELLENT by the way.)
All of that just to learn to work together as a team.... I walked into that classroom not knowing ANYONE walked out with friends. Everyone else was from Aaron's plant, and they all knew each other. I was the "outsider", but that changed VERY quickly.
Now,to keep in mind that next week, I go back to the factory and get back to the rut of only 18 min. dinner breaks. (Boo boo, hiss hiss)

Too bad you have to get back to the same old, same old. Sounds like you had a good time. What a nice change of pace.
