There are not words
to describe the speed at which my employer, telling me to go on a motivational course, would be told to go fuck themselves.

Just think of it
as a paid day out of the office. Or three days in this case.

Well, so long as I could spend the 3 days
at home, no problem.

It'd certainly be more motivational.

I spent a week learning to fly gliders with all the costs covered by my company
so I could "learn about the workload in a cockpit". I did have to take it as annual leave, but it was a price I was willing to pay.
Not all "motivational training" is crap.

That one I'd go for
It's the being harangued by some tracksuit wearing dickhead who isn't happy about the way you've tied 4 plastic barrels together to get 28 feet across an ornamental pond that I'd object to.

I'd motivate him alright - he'd be very keen on changing out of his wet muddy tracksuit.

Have to say
I am with you on that one, mr username.
