1. Wasted time talking with office person named Cody - he likes to ride bikes with his girlfriend, but he recently hurt his wrist so he has been taking it easy
2. Downloaded training programs onto my computer
3. Said "Hi" to Robert
4. Was informed by Mike (not the boss) that we are late for a meeting
5. Go to the meeting, which is training for all CAM's (Control Account Managers) - our boss Mike wanted us to sit in on it
6. Was introduces to CAM's, Project Managers, Software Engineers, and Program Engineers (all white males over age 50)
5. Listened to training on how to make budgets and schedules using different computer programs
6. Listen to a heated argument about who REALLY controls the schedule
Other arguments: why do we need approval for changes to the schedule? Why does corporate keep changing the schedules? Why can't we be more like Lockheed Martin? Why can't engineers control the world? Why does corporate always come down here and tell me how to do my job even though I'm the master of the universe?
7. Ate a chicken sandwich that I brought for lunch with an orange and 2 diet cokes
8. Listened to training on variances in budgets and actual numbers, critical manufacturing paths, and date constraints
9. Listened to more pointless arguments about how to categorize schedules and who is really the master of the schedule
10. Ate a cookie provided by the trainers
11. Set up direct deposit for my checks and recorded the hours I worked
Robert's fashion tip of the day: plaid pants with a vertical striped shirt and a horizontal striped tie
