Just another day in the life

12-01-22 All the best, Jerod

December 1, 2022


I fell asleep after my alarm today and then received texts that the wifi and internet were down at work but I needed to go in to complete time sensitive payroll. I had to shovel my way out.. again. Fortunately everything was working well for me and I got it all done.

I had ordered net lights from Amazon that weren’t supposed to arrive until Sunday so I had them sent to my home instead of work address. I received notification they were delivered today! I took time to go home and get them, and hung one of them on my front trellis so I would enjoy them when I got home later.

I left the office at 3:30 as I had a shift from 4-9:30 at Arby’s which I was happy to be at as it was Jarod’s last night and I had invited him out for a bevie after work. He is the longest employee next to Rae-Anne and I truly wish him the best. The shift was good although the terminal was not working properly for the drive thru and that was frustrating for all. I have much gratitude for Stu who is a whirling dervish and has no complaints. I think the Philippine culture for work is amazing. He just puts on a smile and gets things done. I tackled a lot more things under Ashlée’s management tonight and know that will add to my ability to do without needing to be asked.

I drove Jerod to the Blind Pig and bought him his first drink to celebrate his last shift and new job. It was great to meet his fiancé Lena and Ash joined us as well. There was great conversation and assurances that we would spend more time together. He is such a different person outside of work. But then, potentially, aren’t we all.
