So, first day of work is done; it was more of an orientation day frankly, learning the ropes of the job and getting things sorted. A lot of what I had to deal with was covered in previous jobs, but it was nice getting a refresher; some of the stuff I legit forgot about, so it wasn't unwarrented.
I will say, the "Active Shooter" videos they've been using have been getting increasingly crap in overall quality, apparently because they might "offend" or "disturb" some people. Seriously, the first one I watched a few years ago was pretty solid and did an excellent job with both visuals and explaining the threat. Second was did a good job on explanation, but the actors they used for it were... less than convincing. As for the third one, the one I watched today... the entire choreography was just plain bad, and I'm fairly certain the actors were all lumberjacks or sawyers; it's the only logical explanation for how wooden the acting was. No joke, the gunman was stumbling around in shorts and flip-flops with a revolver; fucking MW23 had more realistic-looking gun usage! Seriously, if you want to really prep someone for an active shooter threat, then don't make the training video look like a drunken Hawiian tourist trying to cosplay The Big Lebowski...
Aside from that, not much was going on for the most part; going to have to go back tomorrow to get the last of my training done. I will say that I had some difficulties staying awake today; not that the training was boring, but because I had gotten maybe three hours of sleep last night and it was an early morning for the orientation. Pretty sure I got enough caffeine in my system for a mild heart attack...
Other than that, nothing else to report; writing's still fucked, backslid on the character design again, though that's no surprise given some of the issues that I've had. Plot itself is getting developed just fine, though, so I'm not completely trapped.
