  • Mood:

A good sign

Today at the job we did more and it feels like we did less. We have the tools, we have the talent. Or, to put it with swear words, yesterday, we knew shit; today, we knew our shit.

Yesterday we spent 10 1/2 hours replacing old mattresses and box springs on one and three-quarter floors of a hotel. Today we took 10 hours to do two and one-quarter floors, and that was with a late start because the first delivery truck was late.

Nice regular crew at the hotel, too, though I still have no burning desire to work in one. And I already know to keep hotel staff happy; they do a big job.

Anyway. More pay and I'm not wiped out by it. Yes!
