An introvert’s worst training day nightmare:

‘Let’s do a fun ice-breaker’
‘Let’s explore that through role-play’
‘Let’s introduce ourselves to the room’
‘I need someone to come to the front…’

Any others?? 😌

@northernassist Lancaster to Barrow in Furness

[Laura Mason @upnorthlol]

Option a) wait 2.5 hrs for the next train unless that is cancelled too.
b) wait an hour for the bus (with 3 changes and almost 3 hour journey length)
c) pay £65 for an Uber
