Random, Thoughts, X,XXIV

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.
Pasta isn't good for elderly anyway
 
Nah, she got it on her own.

Now, I get to go home tomorrow after breaking in a new cook, stay one day and come back for a few days to help the new Dietary Director. The owners of my company are impressed and want to know if I will consider going to Texas next.

Looks like I am headed to Cali for at least 6 weeks after Ohio. Gonna squeeze in a Nashville trip first to see my Mom.

You would probably look good in boots and a Stetson!
 
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.
My VEEP!
