Another annoying day. I had to go to a place to learn about teacher leadership. Learning about leadership involved making a poster with a visual representation of the key ideas in an extremely lame article about leadership. I have a wicked sore throat and made it pretty clear to everyone that I was going to be taking a back seat in the enterprise. I drew a few stick people, but that was about it. I mostly texted complaints to jw. I tried to imagine a group of lawyers or doctors or nurses or CEO's or dentists or professors or engineers or architects being asked to leave their jobs for the day to sit in a room to make silly posters and paper chains together. I could be totally wrong, but I just don't think this would happen. I think a lot of people should be severely punished for wasting my time today.

Yes, we often attend boring, useless workshops/meetings. But, look on the bright side--blog material!!! And, I must say, you are rockin' on this blog contest!

We are having some issues with people not attending staff meetings, and the committee is wondering why. It's because the meetings are completely stupid and a waste of time.
So, I see your point here.
