I had been feeling sour since a few meals back, and finally watched in horror as I relived the previous day in reverse. It was the combination that did me in, but I&#8217;m a glutton for a deal.<\/p>\n<p>We eventually got checked out and headed to our last day at HSTI. Amanda and I lost out on my first pick for a class on Chromebooks, and ended up going to a security class that was really just a shitty sales pitch in disguise. I&#8217;m not sure I could have been more disappointed. I expected at least some coverage of best practices or\u00a0<em>something<\/em>, but all we got was a couple of guys literally reading every. single. PowerPoint. slide. To make that even worse, the slides were basically just a list of all the products they sold.<\/p>\n<p>We eventually split for lunch and shoehorned ourselves into some seats in the cafeteria for some subpar catfish. The chicken strips were pretty rockin though.<\/p>\n<p>I kind of got guilted into coming back sooner than I really wanted. They probably would have begrudgingly stayed if I really pressed it, but I was tired too after the long night and rough morning. Gary hitched a ride with AWOL, so it was just Jason, Zach, and me for the ride home. Once there, I took a nap for a while before playing some Overwatch to keep myself awake, then unpacked before bed.<\/p>\n<p>Overall a great experience with some lessons learned.<\/p>\n<p><em>I don&#8217;t want this to sound too commercial, but here are some packets of references from work we&#8217;ve done in the past that you can take with you.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today was admittedly tough after staying up so late and sharing war stories with Allen.
