Good morning, Smorgsters.

Repeat after me, "It's going to be a stellar day!" (say this 3 times)

Wishing you all nothing but the healthiest and happiest vibes!
 
Well, the physical therapy assistant, I count on the most announced she will be starting a new job in a week. She has been completely checked out since last Thursday. Very frustrating. I had a sit down with her yesterday to express my frustration with her and she didn’t speak to me the rest of the day. But as usual for the past week she left early. Had a new lady start Monday and a new office manager starting today so fingers crossed. Really just me and one trained staff left. Can’t wait for this week to be over! I might have one or 12 green bottles on Friday so there’s that at least.

I know the pain! There was one time when I was working at the hospital I got put on a floor of 32 patients, and I was the only pct (patient care technician)…… I highly debated on just walking out that day. Needless to say I did not care for all 32 patients and only cared for maybe 14-16 of them. 32 was far too many to ask for one person to do
Good morning Bailey! You’ve been there, done that.

Just four of seven just didn’t show up on Friday.
 
Been on a Guitar Hero kick recently (started learning how to play this game 7ish years ago? Off and on consistently, halfway decent at it). Anyways, here is one of the songs that I ran across last night.

I keep seeing your posts but all them have said the same thing which is, "Man, Chris, you're such a handsome and wonderful man, Plus, just seeing you here is the highlight of my day." So, thank you, Paul.

Sounds like something deeper is definitely afoot at your office.
 
Ok, everyone, has anyone had any communication with @DarthRaiderBob ? I dropped a message on his thread but he hasn't replied. I certainly hope he is ok.

@kevgib67 - i think you have his phone number, right? Would it be too much to ask you to text him and inquire about his well-being?

yeah, I think that was a staged walkout. unless there's that unmentionable group working the OH area but I think they're all at the airports now.

Good question! I can reach out to him here in a second.

Said he was active Friday

It was given to me in a text a long time ago. I’ll have to go through my text on my break. I saw that his build thread was active a few days ago.

Active but his last interactions were on March 13th. Pretty unusual for him.

His last post, on his thread, was February 28th.

I'm just a little concerned about him. (Don't let this get out as I don't want people to start thinking the new me actually cares.)
