Had my own table for standing room only event

Got a letter a couple weeks ago saying that I needed to go to a seminar to learn how to get transitioned back into the workforce. I went to the Job Center a few months ago and found the experience less than productive, so I wasn't expecting much from this event that could take up.

It was raining rather badly so I left early to avoid potential traffic issues, and I got there a little early. Saw someone I knew who now works for the county. I seem to see a lot of people I know whenever I leave the house. Either the world is small or I know a lot of people. I hate being around strangers, so I was put to ease a bit from being able to idly chat.

The presentation was to start at 1, but it was eight after when it started. Seemed they were waiting for stagglers to arrive that never showed. There may have been twenty people in the room, when there were at least 16 tables that seated 4. They will come next week since they will have their unemployment benefits withheld until they attend the session.

May have been a waste of time, but it wasn't as bad as it could have been. I got out and the sun was shining.
