MIRA Training

There was the Munich Re training today. As usual, I'm the only guy my age, the rest of them are old farts, and one day I'm going to be an old fart like them.

But it was also like a gathering of sorts, which i felt quite displaced. I'm 95% sure i'm the most junior underwriter there. My table was like an old ladies gathering. Was on the same table as a reinsurance company's ex chief underwriter.

Then there were a few head of departments in the other tables as well. It feels good to be given the opportunity to attend such training. Quite certain if i was in my previous company, this would never have happened.

Yet when it comes to case studies, it feel pressurising. Basically any potential boss/colleguge is there. And once again reminded the industry can be quite the bitch fest if it wants to be.
