Nope. Sorry there weren't any real emus at work today.
Although, it was a very long and mentally exhausting day. I got in the CRC around 8:30am, which means my new wake-up time is 6:15am instead of 7am. Ugh! Luckily that means I get off work at 4:30pm!
I didn't have much to do until 10:30am, which was when the database training started. So I ended up killing time by doing the mandatory and oh-so exciting Computer Safety Awareness training and performing random searches on the database.
For the rest of the day I was trained on the KE-EMu collections database, which consisted mostly of me staring at a computer and listening to some guy talk about how to used the basic functionality of the system. Basically, how to log-in, what fields each module contains, how to perform searches using objects, culture names, people, etc, and how to create a report. Most of it I had already figured out but he went over some things again for the other people in the training session. The training was good, although not terribly exciting and stimulating, and the instructor was very thorough. Sometimes he was a little too thorough and went off on tangents.
Tomorrow looks like it's going to be another uneventful morning. How many ways can I look up Choctaw baskets in the database? More fiddling, I see. Then in the afternoon I will have advanced emu training!
