11-08-22 Tuesday!!
Woah, that was a very satisfying day. It started out with me getting a text from a contractor while I was on the treadmill with questions about the trim at The Studio/Stage Door. In the presidents absence I am the General Contractor on a window and door replacement project. I am glad to be involved with the community theatre in this capacity. I got myself ready and headed there to meet with the guys. They were very friendly and I am confident they will do well. From there I decided to stop at Max’s Place and pick up a sandwich as I hadn’t gotten anything cooked last night. While there I bought a dozen cookies to share at the GroundFloor. They are not inexpensive (2.25 each) but I was glad to have a gift card from the party last Friday of 10 dollars off and was happy to share.
Once back at the office, I was relieved I took the time to shovel my whole driveway before I left so I could buckle down and not worry what the day brought but it turned out Sunny and beautiful. cool still but nice. Natalia arrived and together we got a lot done. She picks up things quickly and makes notes to guide herself. I also sent a link to my friend Julie for some QBO training. It seems to be the most popular software currently.
I had to take off by 4:45 to get to Arby’s for my third job of the day. I had all my clothes in a bag and remembered to bring it in to the office so as not to freeze this time. I worked the closing shift and can tell you that I felt a lot more comfortable this time. I actually contributed to the shift, not just as a trainee. There were many new things again but that is to be expected. I really enjoyed doing the dishes with Stu as we had good conversation. I think he has commented so many times about Rae-Anne and I working together as he lost his mom when he was 6. He sure is a hard worker and sweet as well. It was a big change moving from the Philippines to work here and at 30 he is hopeful to find the right person to build a family and life with but will take his time to find the right one. That is admirable.
There was some big serious event at Staples. We are across the street and saw all the fire trucks, police and ambulance show up there. They were there for at least an hour. I am curious to hear tomorrow what went down.
The first big oops at work was when I was removing all the nozzles off the fountain pop machine so they could soak and I lean the bucket against the orange Fanta which promptly sprayed me. That won’t happen again.
I have learned about myself over the years that when I am the busiest I am also the most productive. I am sure getting a lot done and now I shall sleep!!
