I discovered once that donating blood on a hot day and then coming home to drink a beer was not wise. But the kitchen floor was nice and cool to stretch out on.

Will you go? I know you’ve got extra things going on with your son and DIL (and granddaughter).

Yes, I checked with them yesterday. They'll be okay for a few days. The thing is, I won't know until I get there how long I'll be there.

Did they say if there is some max time you will be there? I don't know a damned thang about the situation, but might it take a long to get things ship shape there? Don't let'em keep you there longer than you want.

No set timeframe. I maybe there just a couple of days or longer. I won’t know until I get there to see how much their cooks know and if they have any candidates for the job. Believe me, I don’t care for the area and would rather not go.

Donated.

What a tough position. Prayers for all, including for her husband to be able to travel in time.

Here’s the latest video from a channel that puts out some great content for those of you interested in history. I binged all fortyish interviews over the course of a weekend.

D-Day, June 6, 1944, actual footage tweaked and colorized. <- I’m of two minds about that, but it does look good:

I just found out the owner of our company wants me to go to Kingsport next week. The dietary director of that facility walked out and I will be running it until they find someone.

Just give them a steady dose of Pal's three times a day.

Hey ORB, if you want to tell me where you'll be (and can have visitors), I'll come see you!

I’m still in Kingsport. It’s a bigger mess than I thought. My first day, I watched and asked questions. I was shocked at how much processed food they are using. I guess one cook didn’t like that I was there and quit that night. Left with one cook, an food order that hadn’t been placed and was late, interviewing applicants for Executive Director, Dietary Director and cooks, fixing errors to pass a State Survey, helping the lone cook and settling her down, questioning the Maintenance man about undone repairs, setting them up with a registered dietitian and new food vendor etc. I can only make it back to the hotel before crashing.

Geezus, what a mess.

Oh no, another showdown with the maintenance man that you will win.

As long as the lone cook don't quit , this quitting and laziness seems to be a trend these days

She holding in there. We did have 2 no shows on the interviews. I figured it was just for the unemployment. My boss hired the ED, the DD and two cooks today. After a day that started out overwhelming, it ended on a good note. Just a matter of the time to get them going.

Its like that in lots of companies, mine was asking for help near freaking Philadelphia almost half the casino quit No way would I go there for any dollar amt.

It started before I got here and if I had a guess. It started at management. In the kitchen part, they were taking the easy way out when preparing food. Who in their right mind adds canned cheese to make Mac and cheese? Or cooks pasta past al dente? I asked them why they didn’t make their cheese sauce from scratch, did they know when to pull pasta (especially if it’s going over another heat source) and why cook vegetables at the same amount of time as each other? I got the answer “that’s how we do it”. I did promise the lone cook left, we’re going to bring back the joy in her in cooking. She’s willing to be taught, so there’s a start.
