Is it just me...

or is this stupid? We have this new software program that's supposed to be rolled out soon. We were required to take online training, which I did. Now we're also required to sit through a virtual meeting session, which, as near as I can tell, is the exact same thing as the training, only live instead of recorded. (We're still seeing it all on a computer screen, no live speaker, just by conference call instead of pre-recorded as was done with the training online.) What the hell is the point of that?! And really, I'd prefer to just get the program, get into it and learn by doing rather than watching someone else work in it. What a pain.
