I don't particularly like trainings. Just the thought of being stuck in a classroom for days and days, being at the mercy of a trainor and forced to get along with people you don't exactly know is not extremely appealing to me. Although I do appreciate diversity in personalities, there is something in this type of setting that somewhat irks me. I've gone through enough trainings to brace myself and more or less know what to expect...
1. There will always be a control freak who will appoint himself as the group's leader in every possible opportunity. He will have no qualms whatsoever about bossing people around, and should anyone question his divine proclamation, be prepared to justify your existence in this world. Of course, I am exaggerating, but I know you get my point.
2. Person #1 will always have a groupie. This person will never question anything he says, and will always be spotted at a maximum of a 2-meter radius from his master, usually just nodding all the time.
3. There will always be an attention-deprived "nuisance participant" who will crack the lamest jokes even at the most inappopriate times. Although this person is indeed witty and may usually be the source of creative output, getting the group into trouble is second nature to him as a result of his motor mouth. Acceptance and approval is a main concern, and he may take it personally when he sees that you aren't amused anymore. His groupie is optional.
4. No matter how good your trainor is, there will always be a person who will not get it.
Of course, what makes this all worthwhile (aside from the additional bullet point in your resume) are the few great people you make friends with along the way. True, you will have to harmoniously co-exist with such people your whole life, and there is no escaping them. Ultimately, what I think is important is keeping the friends you have, and doing the best job you can.
Besides, only a week to go before I'm done with training, so I'll suck it up until then.
