Hiya BetterMost friends!!!!
How is everyone doing??
Last week was the week from Hell at work!
I was recently assigned a new RM to work for, so I have three instead of two. My coworker also had a new RM assigned, so she also has three. She was on vacation last week, so I had to cover the customer reqeusts for 6 RMs. It was A LOT!
On top of that, there were 4 loans that closed that I had to handle because she wasn't there, so that added to the workload.
Finally, we got the confirmation that our office is closing on 12/15, and I will be 100% remote at that time. However, that means that all of the paper files we have in the office have to be shredded or boxed up and sent out by then. So there were two team members from other offices who were at my location for the whole week, there to help me with this, however, because of the extra workload I wasn't able to help much during the day. I stayed there until 7:30pm (after arriving at 7:30am) to help on Tuesday and Wednesday. They stayed until 10:00!
On Thursday they told me to leave at about 6:00, and they finished with the boxing stuff by 8:00pm. They came in on Friday to deal with some final stuff, and left to go home at 2:00.
This weekend my family went to a Halloween drive through attraction on a farm. I made a playlist of horror movie theme music, and played it during the drive, it was very atmospheric and set a good mood for the season.
We were there last year too, and we stopped at the store afterwards, they sell fresh produce and baked goods. I didn't get anything last year, as they only had full sized stuff, which would've gone to waste at my place. This year, however, I was able to get a small package (5) of apple cider cinnamon donuts, rather than a full dozen. I also found a single serving pumpkin spice cheesecake. Mom and dad got a pumpkin pie, an apple pie, and a dozen apple cider donuts.
I still have two weeks worth of vacation time to use, so I am taking the week of Thanksgiving, and will do some cooking for Thanksgiving dinner. I'll make some mac & cheese, cornbread casserole, and biscuits.
Mom will do the turkey breast, the sweet potatoes, cranberry, and corn on the cob.
