Typical Confusion in the Office

Yesterday was one day away from the official start of the Summer Program at the Resort. With 85 people slated to arrive today, there were a few that arrived early to beat the crowd. The problem was that some of those that arrived early found somebody in their assigned sites and couldn't get set up as they expected. The people arriving early didn't get confirmation that their sites would be clear a day early, so they ended up pulling into a temporary space until today.

We are not looking forward to this day. Every individual that has a space for the summer has to bring in a contract that was mailed to them, completely filled out, and bring the final payment of their outstanding balance, if they have one. With the anticipated crowd, it will be a very busy day. All of this with no official managers in the office should make for a wild day. The only good part is that there will be 4 of us behind the desk, and as usual, I will be odd man out as a result of only having 3 workstations. My job will be primarily to see that the sites are ready for the incoming people and to make sure the departing people are gone. While looking at the check-in sheet for today, there is approximately $65,000 in revenue that we are expected to take in today. Not a bad day for the Resort.

Our first real paychecks arrived yesterday and, of course, mine was screwed up. They still have me working in CA and took out CA State Tax from my pay. How much worse can it be? It was over a year ago that I worked there and they still can't figure out how to transfer my records to the new location. I guess I should just feel fortunate that I got paid. Josie's is OK and there hasn't been any problem with hers.

There's not much else to say for now, so until tomorrow when we will review the big day expected today...
