I wrote Melissa an e-mail about this, and she said I should "totally blog that." So I am.
I have been sitting through three and a half days of intense training for my new job, along with about 170 other people. It was all rather mind-numbing, including a collection of new terms, acronyms, and geekspeak that made it sound like a graduate seminar in “The Jabberwocky.”
But there was one moment that stood out. As they were talking about quality control of file management, they put up a huge Power Point slide that read “QC of FM.” Everyone turned and looked at me when I let out a loud “HA!” and snorted a few times. Apparently I was the only one who got the reference.
No, I didn’t explain my outburst, but it did brighten my day.
