It seems as if I’m always getting more training at work! Sometimes I think I’m in training more than I’m working! I’ve been out of work for a couple of months because I hurt my back in an accident, but I went back to the office today to talk to them about when I’ll be coming back, and what I’ll be doing. I have to get a written note from my doctor that I can return to work, and then they’ll be putting me back in training!
I was talking to my boss about how they handle training management, and he was telling me that they use a special program called Conductor that helps them plan and track each employee’s training. He said that is the best set-up he’s ever seen. It’s really important that they have a software program like that because the company has hundreds of employees, and it would be a real logistical nightmare to keep track of the training of all of those employees without it!
I can’t believe I’ve had the lawn mowed already once (I can’t do it yet because I hurt my back.) The grass is really growing, and really green! I called the neighbor up to see if he would come mow my lawn. He wasn’t home, so I left a message on his machine! When I got back from a doctor’s appointment, the lawn was already half mowed! He was really going right to town!
He was even stopping and picking up the branches and sticks that had fallen on the lawn! I couldn’t believe it! What a nice neighbor! This was about six days ago. This morning I decided to take a walk around the house. When I went out back, it seemed like the grass was a foot high again already! So I guess I’m going to have to call him to ask him to come mow it again!
Anyway, the grass is nice and green, and I’m not sure if I’ll even bother to put fertilizer on it! I love green grass, I love the smell of it after it’s been mowed. I’m not sure if I like sitting on the front porch and watching it grow right in front of me! But anyway, it’s nice to have a nice green lawn!
My daughter has decided that instead of just buying an “in-stock” skateboard from a local store, that she wants to custom build her own skateboard through a company over the Internet. She was telling me that you go to the website, www.warehouseskateboards.com/ and order the individual parts of the skateboard that you want and they custom build it for you based on the parts that you order.
She says that you order a skateboard deck, a truck, wheels, bearings, hardware, and grip tape all separately. All of those things have multiple manufacturers to choose from! I did not know that you could do that, I thought you just went down to the local sporting goods store and bought a skateboard! I’ve learned a lot about skateboards from talking with my daughter!
