Have tomorrow morning off
I have worked nine days in a row because of the passing of my work colleague's daughter. She desperately needed some time to regroup after the past year and the recent funeral. It is a small thing for me to do--work for her so she can do errands and heal. The president of the company is working for me tomorow morning, giving me time to get chores done at home and rest. One effect of working so many days in a row is that I make errors easily. For instance, I duplicated an order, but forgot to check the product pricing. The prices had been changed, so the store lost that money. I am trying to stay focused. Yesterday, the phones were not working at the main store (lines were down) so I had to calm stressed customers. One was calling about a wedding, another needed a receipt, another wanted to place an order. These customers were stressed when they couldn't get through to the other store. The company president plans to hang Christmas wreaths. It is good too, that he can see that there is a water leak in the restroom and around some flashing in the roof and that the light bulb in the foyer is missing. Next week, because of the time change, it will be dark at 5pm. I will work tomorrow afternoon, all day Sat, a short day Sunday and then have Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday off. Days to rest and relax.
