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

Was on a course last week
we were in an auditorium, about 90 of us. The place was packed. we had been in the session (about fire drills) for about 25 mins, when the door opened and someone walked in (obviously late, panting, clasping a few documents from previous overrunning meeting) everyone is aware of him, stands at the front looking up to find a seat.... walks along the side... notices a seat right in the middle.
"Excuse me" he says to the man on the end of the row to let him past.... everyone is aware of him, he is making lots of noise. People having to stand up to let him past.
"Excuse me....pardon.... sorry...excuse me..." to each person he passes.
working his way clumsily across the row....People with bags are having to gather their things so they can stand up to let him past...
Finally he reaches his seat, takes his coat off, sits down.
And within the same second, the video ends, and everyone gets up and leaves.
