The new guy didn't shut up all day

There are a lot of things that can be aggravating and annoying when trying to train a new person.

I work in the heating and cooling business as an installation and repair technician. They’re often times during the day when I have to give a customer an explanation. I am a very good teacher and it is one of the reasons why my boss has me training all of the new guys. I spend two days evaluating their skills while taking notes. During this time, I often answer a lot of questions from the trainee. I’m used to spending a lot of time talking on the days when I have a trainee. Still, nothing prepared me for the guy I had to spend the day with on Friday. He didn’t shut up the entire time we were in the truck. Every time we got in the cab and put on our seat belt, the guy wanted to talk about something personal. I would have been perfectly fine if we would have talked about HVAC repairs during our ride, but the guy wanted to talk about anything and everything except heating and cooling topics. I found out some very interesting information about that guy and his family and I could probably tell you all the names of his siblings, nieces, and nephews. The guy spent more time talking than anyone I have ever met in my life. He has some amazing repair skills and he is super smart and observant, but he talks and talks and never shuts up. It was hard not to let it get on my nerves.
