It's been an unusual Saturday for me. For the first time in quite a while, I spent most of this Saturday away from home.
This morning, I had to go to work for a four hour training meeting. Not a big deal, but it's become clear that a lot of things are going to happen or will hopefully happen that will increase productivity and efficiency. We had to learn how to prepare pallets for freight shipping, process orders for all manner of shipping, the company's desires to streamline the packing/shipping process, and we found out that the four new hires will finally start Monday. We have badly needed new people to handle the workload and in time they will get up to speed on how work gets done. I know that for me, it's involved having an attitude to learn and take instruction, something I prayed about when I started and continue to do as I take on more responsibilities. This has been particularly true this week as I've been moved out of the warehouse and into the digital printing room.
After leaving work at noon, I went with Mom to take my sister to work. When we left there, we noticed the battery light in our van had come on. We wound up spending the next three hours at the Sears Auto Center in Northridge waiting for them to fix what turned out to be an issue with the alternator, after they replaced a corroded battery terminal.
As I type this, Mom and I have just come back about twenty minutes ago from having dinner at Sizzler. Mom doesn't eat much meat these days and was in the mood for a steak. Chewy is at my feet, yipping for attention. He's so needy, he'll do anything good or bad (usually bad) just to get our attention. Rotten, rotten dog.
