It's in the book. The first full week with 1 overtime day is done, and we feel pretty good, considering the very hot temperatures and high humidity that continue here. There was another storm last night and the high yesterday was again 93. We didn't get much rain from this one (.1"), but it had more wind. Anyway, it's nice to relax again.
Amazon is very good about getting their employees paid on time. We are already set up on direct deposit and were paid for our first 2 weeks - only 55 hours as a result of the short first week, but it's nice to have the money on time - as opposed to hearing "sorry, we didn't complete the paperwork in time, and you will get paid in 2 more weeks" excuse that we got on 2 occasions at Grey's Point in VA. By the way, we still have not physically received our final paychecks, although they are in the mail from FL from our mail forwarding service. Even when the checks are received, we have to send them to Bank of America in AZ for deposit, since KY has no B of A branches. By the time we finally will have access to our final pay, it will have been about 6 weeks since our last day worked. For whatever reason, they don't issue final checks on the direct deposit system that we were already signed up for. Whatever.
There are lots of things we want to squeeze into the 2 days we have off before returning to work on Sunday night. Starting with haircuts and some local shopping today, followed by a planned trip to Louisville tomorrow where we will go to Costco, have a nice dinner at Puccini's, all following a visit to Churchill Downs and the Kentucky Derby Museum. Racing is over for the summer until October, but there are tours conducted through the facility all year long. We are looking forward to that visit. This schedule should still allow enough "recovery" time before heading back to work Sunday night. That's it for now...
