Really Stupid Training

Ok, TPTB at work decided to drop new training right away, so I was filling in some time (that I was not interested in doing real work during) with taking it.

It's the repeat of the workplace safety dreck, and diversity training.

So I got to watch a crappy slideshow of how to lift things, walk up stairs safely, and how to arrange by desk.

Then the diversity training.....

I'm all for diversity, and it's good that The Job at least follows the law in its efforts to hire/retain staff.  But it serves nobody to have 45 minutes of videos where a person with a specific disability natters on about how it does and does not affect them on the job, and what others should do to when they do/do no need help.  It really doesn't.  Particularly when it is someone with a visible condition, where only the most idiotic of people still publicly offends with comments or actions.
