I’m currently living a dream I had when I was a much younger man. I’m teaching at a facility that I wanted to attend a long time ago. It’s no longer a dream of mine, but it’s still cool to take that off of my ‘life goals’ checklist, even if it’s a checklist I haven’t touched or used in a long time. The classroom is actually quite stunning… It’s like your typical conference room, only 2 of the walls are glass, and one of them faces a long set of windows overlooking a man-made lake and the rest of the campus. The gentleman in charge of A/V equipment at this facility, Charlie, was helpful and friendly, just what I would expect (and have seen so far) from everyone at this company. Most of us only know their ‘satellite facilities’, but at their home office, it’s a different story. I know that they want this kind of ‘Quality, Service, Cleanliness and Value’ at all of their facilities, but considering the age of the employee base at some of those facilities, it’s hard. But as this company’s founder used to say, ‘As long as you’re green, you’re growing. As soon as you’re ripe, you start to rot.’
I’m sorry that I can’t say where I am just yet (I will when this set of classes is done on Tuesday), but if you have Plazes, you should be able to find me and my location. I’ve also left some clues along the way…
