Georgee

I'm in Gainesville, Georgia for Six Sigma training until Thursday. I started it today, and it was good but intensive and I had homework to do for tomorrow. Overall it's not too bad though.

The flight here was really annoying. Every time I fly with Delta it's one thing or the other. I normally don't complain about airlines, because it's so cliche to complain about them, and you hear it all the time, but Delta is getting (or is) bad. Their planes are always breaking down, they're late, and the Atlanta hub is too busy to move planes in and out efficiently.

We took off from Detroit late, and landed in Atlanta 10 minutes early. The pilot came over the PA system saying "Well, we got you here 10 minutes early" like it was a big accomplishment. It would have been a big accomplishment if we didn't sit on the tarmac for 40 minutes "waiting for a gate to open up...". During those 40 minutes this little 2 year old heathen was screaming his lungs out non-stop so hard he was choking and caughing (signs of faking it). There was nothing wrong, he was being a brat is all and I was close to asking his parents if I could take him in the bathroom and shut him up. What really irritated me is that the parents were just sitting there, letting him whine and cry like "well, this is just how 2 year olds are...". No, that's how children who are not disciplined with corporal punishment are. If there were ever a child that deserved to be spanked, this kid was the one.

40 minutes of non-stop toddler screaming. It was so shrill that my ears cringed and my eyes narrowed. I asked the guy next to me if he could see if that kid was dying, because that's what it sounded like, someone was torturing him. Paul, I know exactly what you mean now about your time at a day-care. Bless you.

The nice thing about being in Georgia though is that I have gotten to eat at Chick-Fil-A and Sonic already, which we don't have in Michigan and I haven't had for, oh, 4 months now. They're tasty.

Friday is the day...the AWA convention. I can't wait!
