Is he reading a Chance card from the Ohio St. Monopoly game? ;)

Are donuts and a nap worth $200?

Seminars, meetings, they’re all the same. A waste of time.

I remember so called “strategic planning” meetings at one place I worked. Waste of time. I stopped getting invited though when I started to call them “strategic bombing” meetings.

Not a waste of money to the person giving the seminar and accumulating that money!

should be $2,000

Where can I get a trench coat like this guy’s?

Seminar: the benefits of napping undisturbed

And if you’d like to mail me $200 I’ll send you my book on how to make money on the internet.

Some obviously are just a waste and some might save you thousands in the first day or so, if properly taught and applied.

Much like the MCLE classes lawyers are required to attend. I’m pretty sure a $200 class on the perils of practicing law drunk is enough to make me need a couple of cold ones.

We once had a (this is true) seminar using Winnie the Pooh characters. The program manager was “eeyore”, always worried; the engineers were “owl” the smart ones, the marketeers were “rabbit”, always excited and jumping around, …I don’t remember much about it, but it was a day full of laughs…well, snickers, and we had a nice free lunch. I don’t know how much they paid the guy who ran it. Too much, for sure.
