5 days. It was a glass manufacturing company on the boxing line. I was the new guy and they thought they could get me to work two lines by myself while others were working a single line. I can still remember looking back and seeing glass bottles piling up. 😬

@saragoodtimes it reminds me of the guy that worked in a garden centre and tripped over and fell into the flowers. He came up smelling of roses.

@LukeTheDuke or the guy who worked in quality control at the M&M's factory. he got fired for discarding all the W's

@saragoodtimes 🤭 are you here all week?

saragoodtimes · F

@Degbeme was laid off . have time now. I'm not going out in crowds.

Degbeme · 70-79, M

@saragoodtimes Laid off? 😧 I do understand about the crowds though.

@Degbeme had mostly older volunteers who started to worry about this virus. cancelled the paws for patients program, closed the gift shop when they banned visitors. closed the snack bar. had no need for me

Degbeme · 70-79, M

@saragoodtimes Just temporally I hope?

saragoodtimes · F

@Degbeme said they would call me back when this ends. will be a big job getting people to volunteer again. we'll see what happens. maybe Alan won't want me to work once we get married

@saragoodtimes At first, I refused to believe my road worker father was stealing from his job, but when I got home, all the signs were there.
