you tell us. your company is apparently flying you all over the country for training but you would think McDonalds has training programs in each restaurant.
How hard is it to run a fryer?

You wouldn't understand.
you are right. i wouldn't understand. i don't fly all over the country for training.
i stay right where i am, and my VP flys the trainers in for us.
Lol @ mass office training.
if someone tried to train me via powerpoint, i'd be worried i took the wrong job
don't worry about it
Trying to teach someone via Powerpoint slides is not the way to go. I blame your trainer. You learn by doing, and some jobs will take months of hands-on work before you start to feel comfortable.
Power point is fine for an overview. If it's seriously being used to convey details of your job, start looking elsewhere as the trainer is clueless.Learning is a recursive thing. You need to skim over the top level material first and understand the industry/application/operating environment etc. Then start diving in, gradually, one subject at a time.
It sounds like your reviewer is an idiot or frankly has no idea how to do this. Sounds like he challenges your memory more than your understanding. I'd throw you some material and references and sit with you for a friendly chat at the end of the day to see how much you UNDERSTAND as opposed to just remember.
maybe your poor company does 'mass office training' ...
here, we get 1-on-1 with the cisco trainers.
I have to get to them.
i dont have to get to anyone. they have to get to us.
but i guess when you work for a company with $3bn+ annual revenue... you call and they listen.
However, you are full of shit that cisco is sending anyone giving any serious non-deployment 'hand over the keys' type training. Also I doubt it's at CCNP or better level.
Umm I volunteered
of course you did. if my wife looked like yours, i'd want to get out of town too...
but then again i dont have yellow fever.
You are lying on the internet and pissed that I know you are.
Find out the appropriate training style for the new hire before you start the training. Everybody learns differently.
lol.. i think you're confusing me... with you.
now don't go all alky-hulk... green looks horrible on you
How about I take a pic of my class material tomorrow?
Trust me I don't lie on the internet.
I have no reason to hide anything hence why you think you are upsetting me with pics I posted.
You bitch and moan about your life instead of doing something about it. Personal growth is a big aspect of all successful people. Not all 'successful' people get to be billionaires as some fields limit that, however you should always end up well paid, laid, and happy.
I think you batted three strikes on that.
You keep claiming I am poor or whatever...just the cat hobby I support is a flat $300+ in just food each month. Add in the kitten I am trying to capture to fix it's broken leg, enters brain damage money. I am no Bill Gates by any means, but I am happy and giving back. I had hoped things I do would inspire some people, I donate a lot of money for my income level. Yes I do always ask how much of my donation goes to the charity as many just are 'agents' and the charity ends up getting like 5-20% at best.
I am a CCNP level network engineer with Route / Switch and Wireless specialties. Add that to having a BSCS and pretty much 3 classes short either a Zoology/Chemistry/Microbiology BA. What are your credentials? I am willing to bet in the next two years I pick up a CCIE along the way.
I am thinking you are help desk for a cell phone provider (3 billion+ revenue), we are one of the largest non-cellular backed Cisco partners (and EMC/Netapp/etc) globally. We have one of the largest concentrations of CCIEs in the world. We have accolades in almost all industries/technologies.
I would never be forced to travel for training. Again I volunteered. We do have weekly training 'sessions' available from various partners, but these are just more or less sales/working knowledge type training. It's pretty rare for a company to add an engineer to overhead for a full week plus (and in my case over one month), pay for travel, car, hotel, food, etc as a solo traveler. I don't share a room ever, I travel direct, I get full per diem and a nice rental car.
You just come off as some bitter dude living in the past.
Seriously what makes you so great?
