I am trying to figure out how it can be, after all these years of #Zoom eating their lunch, that #GoogleMeet still doesn't have a way (or at least not any that I can find) to page through the tiles for everyone attending a meeting.

If you are getting the impression, from my earlier posts in this thread, that generally speaking poll-workers are not a population that is exceedingly familiar and comfortable with technology, that impression would be correct.
OK, here we go, 15 minutes past the scheduled start time and we're finally starting the training.

This is a mixed class: inspectors, clerks, and wardens all in the same training. That means they're going to cover some stuff that's only relevant to the clerks and wardens.

Bad things that happened in the last election:
* Police being sent back to City Hall without the tabulator.
* Voters being given the wrong paperwork or being given paperwork they shouldn't have been given at all, because the poll-workers didn't call City Hall to find out what to do.
* More of these should-not-have-happeneds will come up throughout the training.
(The trainer sounds a bit salty today.)
