Folks, this so out there.
Remember how N had to take a sexual harassment training at his new job?
That was only one of the trainings that every new employee has to take.
The total number of the trainings is…
…. prepare yourselves…
… 35. Yes, thirty-five.
One, for example, explains that you have to avoid bribing healthcare workers. Including in other countries. (Which, in some countries, means receiving no healthcare, but whatever).
None of these trainings are work-related. They are all about interacting with other people, so to say. It’s as if human interactions were so profoundly mysterious that you needed a detailed manual on how to engage with another person on any level.
I’m telling you, academia is way behind business in all this craziness. Way, way behind.
