Mgr: Do a talk about that library you're using.

Me: Sure but I'm just learning about it now maybe when I have a better understanding of it.

One week later.

Mgr: I booked a department wide mandatory lunch and learn this Friday for your presentation.

Howdy! 🤠 Welcome!

You got a whole week of practice :O.

I got to take over a month long Microsoft windows NT certification education, 4 evening classes a week for 4 weeks and each 3 hours long.

Had 2 nights to prepare as I got back from vacation just before the course started.

The teacher that should have held the. course got kicked out by the students for being to bad.

And I had to do the normal work day every day to 8-16(got yo go an hour early to have time to travel to the course and its the same employer)

And I had not taken any certification my self and I also said no the first time because I did not consider my self up to the task.

But apparently I did good enough since the students was satisfied.

But it was a month of very little sleep or anything else ;)

That manager should be fired. NOW.
