3rd day in a row having class for the whole day, in a small room, with 18 other people - some of whom are loud - with bright lights and bad air. For some reason the school booked the smallest room they could for the group. I gave them feedback about it, and others have complained as well, but they haven't changed the booking. Tomorrow will be similar and next week begins the practical part of the course, which means new people, but thankfully mostly remote work. I need a vacation already, so exhausted right now.
