I am having great fun at the moment doing some computer classes. I have not done any training for ages and I had forgotten how good it felt to learn new things. Work have sent me on this course and it is even better than I expected because not only am I learning interesting things but I am also out of the office for a week, which is always great as well as staying away in a hotel. I had no idea that computer training could be so good.
I have decided that I will put my name forward for every course that is going from now on, so that I get lots of opportunities to have fun away from the office! I will have to justify it to my boss of course, but I am sure I can come up with some good reasons for doing various things. It will be really great for my career progression as well which is always a bonus and in this economic climate, you never know what might happen so it is always wise to be very well prepared. I do not think our company is in any trouble and there are no signs of redundancy at present but with so many of my friends losing their jobs, it does make me worry a bit about mine.
