About Retirement

One thing I'm noticing about retirement is how much more I resent all the "training" I have to do. 

Not that I didn't resent the training when I had years ahead of me at the job. Every semester, the same explanations of the same things -- here's what to do for ADA, here's what to do if a student has a health crisis, here's what to do if there's an active shooter in your building (die, basically) -- but as the years have gone on, the number of "training" sessions have increased. 

This year alone I've had to do Blackboard training again, even though I'll never use Blackboard (I prefer Google Classroom), and now I'm supposed to do several Workday sessions even though I only have fourteen weeks left on the job. 

Not that I'm counting the days or anything.

Also assessment sessions. UGH.
