work work work

I'm learning quickly how much work I've gotten myself into.  Especially since, apparently, I've only been shown just a little fraction of what my future duties will be.  It is crazy.  Good thing I have the rest of my life to learn everything.  Because I plan on being at this job until I retire if I can hold onto it. 

Today I'm going to Plover to pick up my last check from the hotel, and drop off my uniform from there.  Should be interesting considering the housekeepers will probably be there when I stop in.  I'm curious if they ended up hiring someone to replace me yet.

I've also got a 3 day weekend this week.  On Monday there is about 4 patients and only one out of two eye docs at the office.  So since I'm new they decided to have me be off so they didn't have to try and figure out things for me to do.  I would pretty much be sitting there twiddling my thumbs all day, and they didn't want to pay me to do that.  DAMN. Oh well, now I can putz around all day on Monday instead.  The only drawback is I have to stop into the office to pick up my check.  We get paid on Mondays and there's no direct deposit.  It will be my first check from this new job!  At least I hope I'm getting a check and they aren't holding it for some reason.

Ben has been working like mad.  He was off one day this week because of the flu.  Puking his guts out all day is not fun. I honestly think working so much and not taking time to eat lunch everyday finally caught up with him. 

I'm going to go enjoy my Saturday off in this gorgeous weather we are having.

All good things come to an end.....


Today was a sad day.  My parents had to say goodbye to one of their dogs.  They have had him for 6 years.   He had always suffered from seizures, and this weekend he had finally had enough. He was the sweetest dog you could ever meet, and everyone loved him.

You will be missed.
