If you're interested:

Union local (UFCW) news.  Nitty-gritty detail can be found here (if you're not a UFCW union member, it will look very dull.)

Google directed ad's might actually be good for something (I have nothing to do with any of this, so the usual you-get-what-you-pay-for and the web-is-a-network-of-lies warnings apply):

Hector's Ears

On a personal note, Hector's ears make me dizzy. He had these plastic spacers inserted into his ear lobes (they look like plastic washers,) and the effect is (unintentional, I'm sure) a little comical. Haven't talked to him about it, and it's a personal bias. My feeling is: do whatever you like to your body; it's yours, not anybody else's.

Nb: Hector is on the night crew, and many of you will never see him, or the ears.

No head explosion, & a mystery visit

Albert kept my head from exploding today when I mentioned while we were moving a heavily loaded Entemann's display table: "my head will explode if we have to move it back." Shortly afterward, Doyle B. showed up, and said, "move it back." Fortunately, Albert asked help from someone else.

Brian L. was in for a manager's meeting yesterday--it sure was a pleasure to see him.

Full Moon Madness

No madness yet, but give it time. Jason M. on vacation, Doyle B. in charge. 

Dennis P is back today; I hope he can work for a while, but Lisa H says his foot is still swollen.

Late news: Dennis is working, and seems to be able to function.
