Instead of sitting in the rest of my classes, I got to go on a field trip with my business class to 3M. Over there, we saw what an AGM was like. It’s a yearly grouping of people to discuss business goals for the company and other relevant information.
We were offered breakfast and lunch there, too. The breakfast was good; a can of pop and a couple donuts. However, I didn’t really care for the lunch. There was a turkey sandwich, potato salad, fruit cup and cake. Except for the cake, fruit cup, and pop, the lunch didn’t taste very good.
There were other kids from other schools who also came. I mostly hung around the kids from my own school.
We got here by a charter bus and city bus. We rode down to the St. Paul Civic Center where the meeting took place. This makes the second time I rode on a city bus. I enjoyed riding the buses.
We were suppose to be dressed up for that meeting. We couldn’t wear any jeans! The evening before the day of this trip, I got the clothes I wanted to wear washed and all ready. I wore my black slacks for pants and my loafers for shoes. I didn’t wear a suit or formal dress shirt and tie. I wore a regular everyday school shirt, but it looked nice since it was collared polyester button top and nothing like a jersey or t-shirt. So I was plenty dressed up. I did better than some of the other kids. Some boys wore jeans anyway and lots of them wore tennis shoes.
