so, i decided to sign up for another dance class, now that the previous one is over. after some back and forth between the director i decided to sign up for the next lyrical dance class.
her first suggestion was that i take their adult ballet class, but i couldn't bring myself to do it. first, i hate tutus (though she assured me that i would never have to wear one) and i know a couple "ballet people". i've made the observation that they constantly stand around with their feet in the first position (toes out) and eat carrots and celery for lunch. i'm just not feeling it.
anyway, this is another new thing to learn, and i'm pretty excited, actually.
in other news, yesterday when i was on this telecon, one of the directors at the client's company started throwing a temper tantrum. like seriously. yelling, complaining, insulting, and generally, behavior i find consistent with a child. thankfully, that wasn't directed towards me, but i am glad i have a mute button.
the whole thing made me laugh. and HARD.
hey, i care about my job too, but i can't IMAGINE getting so upset i'm at the point of swearing at a bunch of co-workers because they're not agreeing with my insanity. it annoys me that people like him (who by the way, reports to the VP and probably has 75 people working for him) manage to find any success, anyway.
just further evidence that success in business has little to do with being a decent human being. it's all about objectives, and justifying any means to get there. days like yesterday, i am SO ready for my next career.
