Work Day

Josie went into the office at 9:30 AM yesterday to get some one-on-one training on the computer system. She returned at 10:30 AM and we had lunch before heading back together to work the afternoon. Originally, the schedule had us working only Tuesday but Mike changed the schedule to have us working Monday also. The schedule changed again and now we don't work again until Friday afternoon. See, the first 12 hours each for us, each week, is counted as time for our site. In other words, we have to work over 12 hours per week to begin getting paid. Jeff (owner) has us scheduled to work on the new coffee cart and that time will all be paid. Mike is being careful not to schedule us for more than the 12 hours in the office. We plan to get a lot of hours on weekends in the coffee cart and Jeff is satisfied with that.

Our work day ended at 3 PM for Josie (as a result of her hour in the AM) and 4 PM for me. It would be nice to have this much time off all the time, but we need to work for money so we are anxious to get the coffee cart opened.

Today we have a planned trip to El Centro to get some things at Costco and to check out the town. Josie has invited Mike and Sharon over for dinner on Wednesday night - to return their favor on our arrival day. She plans to have chicken DiVan (?) so she needs to get some ingredients for that. Since we have three days off, we will probably do some exploring in other areas. Josie is anxious to see how long it takes to go to the beach in San Diego, so one day may be taken up for that adventure. Until tomorrow...
