Vacationing.....

Hi guys,
B4 all of u start assuming what the hell I am upto at the start of my job..chill...I m still sane with the training going on but it's kind of a paid vacation...Enjoying it, but it sometimes gets a bit overboard...
Starting this week, we had a two day sales training - wondering y was it required...but to quote unquote our bosses "It is necessary 2 get a feel of the business...." We were supposed to be understanding the entire sales process- and the product that my company sells is a Push product and it is something which can only be "bought" it cannot be "sold"...OK...chuck all this marketing gyaan...
We were supposed to be assissting the marketing guys and see how the pitching process happens...Oh what a pain for the two days...some of my colleagues running from one end of town to the far end of suburbs...we were exhausted wildly and we just thanked our stars for bringing us to the right profession i.e. Finance and not Marketing...It really requires some extra terrestrial skills to convince these Indian people...
Today ---day was :-(....None of d trainers turned up except for 2 who took a combined session of 45 minutes...rest of d time was just whiling away time at the office cafetaria, library etc...and hence this "Vacationing"...comes into picture...All of us were damn bored at the end....
I just felt like...cut all this crap and give us our projects and let's just start work....But I am 2 sure...such days are not goin 2 return ever...So trying to live each moment!!!
