Day Off

It is nice to have a day off with good plans.

We already did our much needed bike ride, Harold took a few more pics of the baby blue jays….they now have their eyes open and no longer make noise when they hear us. But boy….when they don’t see or hear us…..noisy little buggers. =)

We are going to a friend’s place for the night, it isn’t too far from here (they are out of town). It has its own private beach and we plan on enjoying it to it’s fullest. But it is great for us just to spend some nice quaility time together.

Luckily I don’t work until tomorrow afternoon. I did just over 12 hours @ work yesterday.

I know some folks don’t get why being salary can be important compared to an hourly manager, but what I really like is that I don’t have to be a clock watcher. If I feel I need to stay over to get something done, I can & not worry about getting us in trouble for overtime. And that pays off in the long run cuz there will be days that I don’t need to stay over and leave a little early. This last 7 months was the 1st I’ve been an hourly since I graduated from college & it was weird.

I’m feeling really good about our shop & management team. I feel as if we are all on the same wave length as managers & with the strong players in our shop we can really get things turned around. Even our DM said that we have a lot of opportunities & once things are caught up everything will fall in to place. That made me feel good.

Need to finish getting things together. If the place has internet I may update you later, if not….chat with you later. =)
