I am in training at work right now, which is a BLISSFUL vacation from the phones. There's only one problem.
They have one of our "Coaches" training us. And this woman has got to be one of the most ignorant, vapid, and non-communicative people I have met in recent memory.
I don't know what language she is speaking, but it sure as heck isn't English.
Thos of you who speak to me in serverwide.eqtraders know that the two things I hate most in this world are bad grammar, and ignorant speech.
This woman's subjects haven't even MET her verbs, let alone agree with them. She responds to our questions with blank stares, and unrelated answers.
I've actually, in the past day, kept a list of things she has said that have made me PHYSICALLY wince. (Here are just a few)
"Do anyone want to read this paragraph?"
"Now, we can cackle-ate the interest rate"
"Press the tiddley key on your keyboard" (TILDE. TILL-DAY. Say it right. Not Tiddley winks)
"Now, press the ex-cape button!"
"When this page comes up, stroll down to the 4th paragraph. Use the stroll-wheel on the mouse."
"Now, we minus it by 10, and times it by 40.
And I wont mention the examples of the subject verb non-agreement, but rest assured, every 5 minutes, there's another one.
It sounds like they took somebody off the street, and had them memorize a few bank terms, and they're conducting an experiment.
She can't keep her numbers straight. She'll have us work on an equation or a series of number, and halfway through, she'll get confused and tell us to forget those, and try a different set of numbers. Repeatedly.
The brainpower of Broccoli, mixed with the communication skills of Jar-Jar.
Not to mention that our "Training" has consisted of one day of her reading, ver batim(sp?), a series of computer screens of things most of us already knew, and then One day of having us read, unguided, a bunch of items she hasn't explained(Which she then tried to explain some of towards the end. Tried. very little). At almost no time has she actually taught us anything. We've picked up the odd bit of systems knowledge, and I've managed to teach myself a lot of what I'll need to know.
But this is the only trainer, at any job, who I've ever thought of reporting as being horrible.

) The problem is this reinforces the person's bad behavior. I've seen this on every Everquest board, including the official one. The person probably gets away with it at school and home as well.
