Today was a slow day, but very education. I am finding that out that my time at CTLC is better spent watching than actually doing things. When I walked into the double door facility I seen the usual faces, and I greeted them as I made my way back to my little small cubical office.

What I mean by that is that people talk about what they are going to be doing in the meeting, well instead of being in the meeting why aren’t they doing it now. One good thing that I got out of the meeting was that I was able to add something to my learning contract and I was able to sees some old
