Today’s Work Chronicles… Come to you on my weekend off because my Administrative Assistant, aka my mother, arranged for me to work today so I can have Saturday off since those Mt. Tabor Spartans will be traveling to Asheville Friday. I just thawed out and will be going into another level of cold this Friday… Continue reading 11.25.2018

Today’s Work Chronicles… Sentimental morning as I reflected on football and how I was reluctant to work concessions because everything I know about concession stand operations is because of my Aunt Denise aka Ms. Z. Add to that, a new church coming to worship with the residents and the pianist playing “Great Is Thy Faithfulness”,… Continue reading 11.18.2018

Today’s Work Chronicles… “I’m not lucky, I’m loved” are lyrics from a song by Jonathan McReynolds that are fitting for my morning. Friends provided me with viddles and beverages for the weekend and I DO NOT TAKE IT FOR GRANTED! Now on to the “Full Moon (I know it’s next week) Activities” of the day…… Continue reading 11.17.2018

Are so long because I want y’all to understand the importance of taking care of yourself because skilled nursing isn’t where you want to be. I thought I was good when I avoided working on the full moon weekend…WRONG! Resident spoke to me while clacking her dentures, after licking her fingers to hand me two… Continue reading 11.03.2018

I should have known my mentor, who’s responsible for the opportunity, would be snapping away. I’m kind of glad he did because it displays a portion of my passion for equity, education and equitable educational opportunities.… Continue reading 09.18.2019

Today’s Work Chronicles… Resident came and asked when the podiatrist would be back? I didn’t hear her at first so then she said, “the man who can look at my BIG TOE.” I told her, “September 4th which is next Tuesday.” She says, “TUESDAY? That’s bingo day and I like bingo better than I like… Continue reading 08.26.2018

Today’s Work Chronicles… Y’all clearly didn’t “Pray for me to be what the Lord would have me to be in these last and evil days.” I walked in the building and said to myself, “Self” Self said, “Huh?” It feels like a full moon type day… Resident asked for two peppermints (that my mother supplies)… Continue reading 08.25.2018

Today’s Work Chronicles… Resident came up and said, “Oh you’re not *****, is she not working today?” Me in my head, “Apparently not, if I’m here,” but in real life my response was 😐. She complained because it was noon and a CNA hadn’t made her bed and said, “but she had time to walk up… Continue reading 08.11.2018

RARE* Weekday Work Chronicle… Patient finds out who my employer is and proceeds to advise how his employer is in the top 1% of most successful brokers. He says, “Unless you’re here to tell me you all are lowering rates then I’m good.” Me: 🤔 HOW?!? You are on the cardiac floor and I couldn’t find you… Continue reading 07.31.2018
