This is a question Training courses, seminars and conferences

Inspirational or a waste of precious slacking-off time? I once went on a buzzword bingo-laden training course which ended up with my being held at gunpoint in public. Could have gone better, to be honest. Tell us your tales from either side of the lectern

the most un-enjoyable
was the Underground access course that you need to pass to work on The London Great Tubular System.

Basically a whole day to learn two things.

1. Don't monkey around with asbestos.
2. If you see a rat don't pick it up and suck the piss out of it.

oh, and don't turn up to work pissed or high.

It was three things. A whole day for three things.

Edit:

AND don't step on any rails and look out for trains.

It was five things...I remeber now.

1. Breathe shallow
2. Breathe shallow.
Don't get caught turning up for work pissed or high.

C'mon, it's not like we all have the opportunity to have sex with the cadavers we're responsible for.
Or something.

My doc has a letter about leptospirosis
if I come in with flu symptoms, check whether I've been sucking the piss out of rats.

Actually, rats are incontinent, so there's no need to suck it out; it just leaks out as they scurry around.

Perhaps
so many turned up pissed/high on the first day of the course that they had to repeat it until they were sober enough to understand?
