I'm Worth Every Penny

Today was Spring cleaning @ work. I got to wear jeans and tennis shoes to work today. Its to bad that can't be an everyday thing we even had to work for that privilege today. Payment to wear such casual clothing- moving all '06 and older boxes of paperwork to a warehouse 6 blocks from here. I work for in the accounting department remember and I've learned in the 3 months I've worked here accountants are responsible for killing trees unnecessarily unless your an auditor I'm sure you would agree with me hehe. For 3 hours me and another gal in AR loaded up a dolly 6 boxes high and brought them outside to be loaded onto a truck. I myself made 17 trips (thank God for elevators) Every once in awhile a 3rd person would chip in to help. The biggest thing was steering the loaded dollies through crowds of guests. Chivalry is pretty much dead in AK a few tourist walking by would jump to open the door but consider 34 trips (going in and going out) a few is not that impressive. One thing was nice is the hotel employees can't say we don't work anymore the majority of them saw us work today thats for sure.

Reward for such hard labor Fletchers Pizza (which is REALLLY good), a nasty bruise( I bruise easily so don't feel bad ) and my pay check (which I would have gotten anyway) I was told I was worth every penny. In that case I should get a raise :-D answer I got back- HA- :-( it was worth a try lol

I feel nasty and was just informed I looked nasty as well. I work with such wonderful......ly honest people hehe

No one heard grumble or complain from me- well maybe a moan every time I got out of my chair- it was so nice to only have to sit at a desk for an hour or two.

Our executive chef is leaving - he's going to Seattle to do some high profile cooking or something... I told him I was going to miss him- he said no you're only going to miss my desserts- I said no just your cheesecake. Which is to die for- so today he heard that I hid physical labor so he brought me a piece of cheesecake and told me I didn't have to worry about how horribly fatting it was becuase I actually worked :-P I'll take that insult for a piece of cheesecake :oP haha

Ok I've rambled enough

Mom should be hear soon

Have a good Friday everyone
