Day one-hundred-thirty-three

It's too hot today. Everyone seems to have that rundown feeling. Fortunately, we have less than two hours of work left as I write this, and it hasn't been too busy a day.

Truth be told, we seem to finally be entering the anticipated slowdown period. Work is going to be a little easier for everyone, which is nice now that the weather is starting to become consistently hot one day to the next.

The downside is that it seems like there just might not be enough work to go around. When things start to slow down on the warehouse floor, oftentimes packers will be sent in to work on our roll labels. Sometimes, they don't always finish, so sometimes they go temporarily "missing".

Still, people get things done. The managers make sure of it, since they're ultimately responsible for whether or not the work gets done. Of course, we're held accountable for what we do or don't do.

That reminds me, performance evaluations are going on right now. I don't know when my turn is coming, but they only have three months of work to look back on. I've stayed out of trouble, earned employee of the month, and they're happy with the the changes in the digital room. We'll see what happens.


Nice day, though. I'm home now, sitting on the floor of our darkened hallway, keeping cool. I've got to make sure the trash bins are out for tomorrow morning.
