Monday

Greetings, Internet! Hmm. If thinking what to put in these posts wasn't hard enough, I have to think up titles too. Check out the amazingly original and subversive title of this one. Bet you can't guess what this post is about, huh? Give me a break, it's midnight as of when I'm writing this, and it's been a fairly busy day. At least it gives me something to write.
Started "Work Focus Training" today. Well, I had my induction, which meant signing lots and lots of papers, and writing out my NI number six billion times. Yet I still can't remember it, and have to check every single time I use the damn thing. Then I had to read a booklet how racism is bad. Yeah, because I need to be taught that. Then came the questions. Yeah, this thing was a quiz as well. First few questions meant reading advertiments for avalible jobs for MEN ONLY, and askling me who they could possibly  be discriminating against. Gee, I dunno.
Then came the wordsearch. Yeah, there was a wordsearch. That one threw me. Not sure how finding words like "DISCRIMINATION" and "INDIRECT" is suppose to teach me that discrimination is bad, and how no to use it at work. I'll admit, the booklet wasn't all bad. Did you know you have to be given time off for a sex-change operation? I didn't. So, if you want a holiday, and see how the other half live...
So yeah, that was my Monday. Filling in forms and wordsearchs. I mock, but I think this WFT could really help me a get a job, so yay! On the writing side of things, I managed to get a bit of writing done on the bus home, but I don't recommend writing on a crowded, busy bus. It makes my already terrible handwriting pretty much unreadable.
All the best, PR Thornton
