A Chill Pill

I've learned some things from these training seasons. Some of the most important things I've learned from this boy that can only be characterized as a 12 year old in 21 year old's body. This person is constantly on the go, he can't stand still and has to have the last word. He gets upset when he doesn't win an argument and has to be the center of attention. If he's not he's asleep, annoying the person next to him or sipping on a small cup of instant coffee found in the second floor break room.

I honestly have gotten to the point with this character in the Training Room reality TV show that I've just rolled my eyes and moved on. I get an occasional chuckle out of him, but I don't let anyone else know. He reminds me of all the pain in the butt kids that so many of my fellow interns had to work with over this summer. If it was appropriate I would tell my Trainer some of these stories and let him know that it's okay and that it will be over soon. This situation has gotten to my Trainer a few times and he's gotten frustrated and told this guy to leave.

If I could say anything about this situation, though, I would say to everyone, "Take a chill pill, we only have 32 hours before we start our real jobs."

Oh dear God, only 32 hours until I'm responsible for a little cube, a computer, and customers, on a daily basis. All in business clothing.
