Good Luck, Kimi

We have a cold one going today. It's about 22 degrees but with the wind its about 11. There is a light but persistent snow coming down and the wind is blowing it all over the place.

One of the nice things about getting to work early is that you beat all the morning snow accidents. I guess there were a bunch this morning but I heard about from people who showed up to work after me.

Speaking of someone who showed up after me, I lost a good co-worker today. Kimi has been here for about 6 years. She was a good worker. We transferred her out of shipping into the Art Dept. She was chronically late. It was tough for her to wake up in the morning. A good solid sleeper!

Anyway, they have been on her for a long time about showing up on time and she was warned on Tuesday about it. On Wednesday, she came in 12 minutes late. We had a meeting about it and I tried to fight for her but the boss had had enough.

6:38PM: I left work early today in order to pick up film. That got me home while it was still light. I was able to tackle the two or three inches of snow with alacrity. It sound like we have more coming tonight.
