Harold spent the day working, I worked on laundry; got a few more receipts entered while we have the playoffs on.
It is has been windy as heck all day and chilly. They have been giving freeze advisories for our area. I may have to get something warmer on other then shorts and tank top…….lol It is still weird to me for this time of year not to have snow, I don’t believe I’ll ever get use to it. Of course, once I get to a more normal climate it will take me time to get use the colder weather again, but I think I can do it. =)
Yesterday at work, Cheryl and I got about 3 interviews done. They did well, now she just has to get a hold of our DM and get him down to interview them and another that we had already interviewed. We really do need to get our 4th manager.
We are suppose to get our budget for next quarter this Tuesday, hopefully we will actually get it. So we can see if they actually gave us our budget for the 4th manager and be able to hire a few folks. We are extremely stretched and when someone needs or calls off, we are screwed. And working that way gets old and is bad for morale. But it all depends on the budget. =(
I got a call from Sandy yesterday. Her sister Chrissy (who use to work for me at Fannie May Candies) had gotten an internship and was wondering if I would give her a reference. I’m like heck yeah!
I had never meet Chrissy before I had interviewed her. And, of course, hiring a relative of my best friend is a risk. But she worked out very well and I would hire her in a heart beat. Sandy gave her my info and Chrissy gave me a call. We talked for about an hour and it was great to hear from her.
I can’t believe that she’ll be graduating from Purdue-Calumet this year. Time has flown. Her internship would let her use her art and help people at the same time. She would be working with kids that have been abused and she would be helping them to express themselves through drawing. It is a great opportunity with possibility of full employment after graduation. I did tell her to prepare herself for what she’ll see and that Sandy is a great help when you need someone to talk to.
So I should be hearing from someone this week looking for a reference for her. =)
