However, this was one of our better ones.
No stupid games. (Like dancing? please)
No team building stuff.
We were given tasks and we did them. Well, we didn't finish one as we couldn't come to a consensus, and then the English department told us we were doing it all wrong. At least my table came to a consensus.
Also, one of my coworkers is really frustrating as she takes a simple task and makes it really hard. Yeah, we have kids like that. Unfortunately she was at my table for two days in the fall. My way to deal with the problem — whip out a computer and write a program to solve it.
Here's the deal.
You have fencing to make a rabbit pen. One wall will be your house. What is the relationship between the amount of fencing and the area of the pen. (By the way, it doesn't matter what kind of fencing, nor does it matter how many doors you have).
Wrote the program in VB, and had it done pretty quick. I think it would make good assignment for kids and need to perfect it.
Two good articles to read and discuss. I made two comments to the group, people listened to them and positively reinforced me.
All in all, a good day.
