Planning for the Thanksgiving Weekend

We had another meeting with the owner and managers yesterday morning and discussed the schedules for the Thanksgiving weekend. Josie and I are going to be very busy. Starting on Wednesday where we work from 2 to about 9 PM in the office. Thursday, Friday and Saturday we start every day working the coffee cart from 7 to 10 AM, Cafe from 10:30 to 2 PM, Office from 5 PM to 9 PM. All of the time outside of the office will be paid - finally. Of course, after Thanksgiving we will again only be paid for time running the coffee cart. It will be nice to have Monday and Tuesday off this week to rest up for the rest of the week. We also will bring a relish tray and bread to the Thanksgiving dinner that is going to be held in the Cafe on Thursday between 2 and 4. That will be a huge pot luck dinner with about 30 people scheduled to attend. The owner is really busy trying to get things ready for the big weekend. He had a big screen TV installed in the clubhouse and it is ready to go. The pool will be heated to 85 degrees and the spa, already heated, will be warmed to over 100 - it is now set at 95 and feels like bath water.

Our work hours in the office yesterday were from 4 to 9 PM. The time went pretty fast as we checked in some people for storage and the camp sites and performed the closing duties for the first time. This morning we are on from 9 AM to 2 PM and that gives the managers a chance to go to church for the first time since they arrived 2 months ago. They could have scheduled us on Sunday mornings before this so we don't know why they waited until now.

The winds stopped yesterday morning shortly after I posted the entry and became beautiful once again. Today is also clear skies and no wind and is expected to go to about 80. Until tomorrow...
