making the wheels churn
I am so tired I want to sleep. Not nap, sleep. I'm not sure what is causing this, I just know I don't have time for it.
I'm training two people how to basically do the work our department specializes in. One of them is from the ground up, both of them are English as a 2nd language ladies. Fortunately they are both smart and have great senses of humor so we aren't having any barriers with communication.
I like training, it's just overwelming to have their work to check and mine to do. That keeps my widdle brain rather busy. Knowing that I am now the person that I used to think "wow, will I ever understand as much as them?" is very odd. I feel like they might at any time stop me and say I'm not qualified to do this, that I am clueless myself.
But I'm realizing that I'm *not* clueless. I do know my job and on top of that I do a kick ass job of training people. What I've heard a lot from my trainees is that they are not afraid to ask me questions and they think my training is fun. Dear folks, if I've made what we do fun, I'm a magician! Both of them are having such pride in what they are accomplishing.
But .... so am I.
