Preston CP 4


11/19/12
Another regular meeting with Plengchart We met in the Union for lunch again.  Today I was a bit surprised, Plengchart asked me to correct him a bit more than I have been. I thought I was doing a good job but it seems it wasn't good enough.  So I made a mental note to correct more often.  After that the discussion turned to dealing with co-workers.  Apparently some of the guys he shares office space with are being a bit unreasonable. I was listening closely to see if it might be a cultural misunderstanding, but no not in this case.  It seems those people are simply being unreasonable, and not cleaning up after themselves properly.  I expressed my shock and disappointment that people would behave in this way. At the end we came to the conclusion that people are like that everywhere.  We had to end this session a bit early because Plengchart’s lab was across campus today. However I am happy to report that he is making fewer errors during our meetings. I know he’s been practicing his speaking, whatever he’s been doing seems to be helping.
