Words, Part 2

On discussing feelings at work.

By the way, our instructor was hysterical. Very dry sense of humor and full of great examples and self-mockery.

After lunch, the instructor covered the topic of how to express ourselves using "feeling" statements. (Yes, I put quotes around that word. Can you sense I'm going somewhere with this?)

I'm totally onboard with discussing feelings in every aspect of my life EXCEPT at work. I don't think it belongs there. Unfortunately for the instructor, all the examples we had to work on were work related items, (EG. develop a statement for informing your boss how you feel when he/she asks you to work past 5pm everyday) AND he had me in his class. I hijacked the class with my rant and I'm not sure he ever got his point across. the next rant, Welcome to the No Whine Zone )

Coach Dread_Walker

A much less exciting (and ranty) post but (IMO) of more significant interest to me.

I am now coaching 1 person for running and a 2nd wants to set something up with me so she can do a sprint triathlon next spring.

This is about 5 years or more ahead of schedule, but there it is.

How bizarre. I'm bemused, amused and confused. Where is my Muse?

Is there a camera around the doorway with a spokesman ready to jump out?
[profile] sirst, are you shuddering on behalf of my victims?
drum roll... the victims volunteered themselves! )
