Introductory Meeting With Temp Manager

Our meeting with the new "temp" manager started right on time at 7:30 Yesterday morning. The Regional manager (Dawn) was there to introduce her (Barb) and they discussed changes that they would like to see made here at the Resort. Of course, Barb wants to meet individually with everybody so that she can get a feel for what needs to be fixed. Everything! It was a typical day for us at the front desk and we signed out at 5:15 PM and Barb said she would like to talk to us for a while. We spent 45 minutes telling her why we were leaving and she appreciated the frankness and the disclosure about many problems here that she hadn't yet heard about. Her suggestion to us after the meeting was for us not to turn sour yet on the company, but give it another chance, perhaps in a different location. She is currently the park manager at Pine Island in the Ft Meyers, FL area, and she said that they are always looking for people in the winter in one of the five FT Meyers area parks. We may take her up on her offer. In the meantime, she will be here for about a month while they search for a permanent manager.

The countdown is in the final week for us. There are 4 more days to work and we get ready on Monday to leave on Tuesday. This will be another hectic weekend at the Resort with lots of families coming in for the Easter holiday. It may be even more busy this Friday and Saturday than it was for the kickoff of the Summer Program last weekend. They appreciate our staying on to help with these 2 busy weekends.

We'll make this entry short and sweet and save more discussion for tomorrow...
