Today's been one of those days that's been really up and down.
Things have been in such disarray in the digital room that they had to change or it was going to become completely unworkable. Today made a big difference, though.
First, I realized that God may have been keeping me from speaking up too soon, that is, before I had all the facts. I had a long talk with Marco from the first shift, and it proved to be very enlightening. First, I discovered they really only have two packer/shippers. The third shipper has been filling in for Marco as he's been spending the first half of his shifts training elsewhere, and has had to leave his work to a lady from the warehouse floor who has apparently been doing a poor job. They have been as understaffed and I'll-equipped as we've been, except they don't have the pressure of meeting deadlines.
Secondly, I had the opportunity to talk to Gaby from Human Resources about what's going on. They've been aware that things are busy, but they didn't realize that things were going so badly. Also, my manager, John, is now aware of how poorly things are working out. Both have promised that changes are coming, John himself having gone straight up to corporate. Gaby has said that are plans to continue hiring more people.
Pray that God's hand would be in all this, and that I would trust Him and His faithfulness in what are often deeply discouraging circumstances.
