You get to spend Wednesday training on it instead of working.
As soon as Widgetron™ becomes the industry standard, there will be no Wednesday trainings anymore. Knowing how to use Widgetron™ will be a job requirement.
And then every job applicant needs a WOC (Widget Operations Certificate) before they’ll even be considered for the role, and then there’s a whole quasi-academic professional body set up to provide training courses and administer the WOC test, and so that provides employment to a bunch of Widget Operations Instructors… Economics is weird.
