I was surprised that Line Workers were waiting outside the locked door when I arrived at the Plant this morning. It wasn’t that I was late it was Paul who had not opened up yet. With only Twenty Minutes before start time Flora the Shipping and Receiving Clerk arrived to open the doors.

After hauling everything in and getting changed the Paint-Line was already in motion. I managed to look at a few things with a more deciphering eye this morning. The few that didn’t quite look right I returned to look again as the clouded sunlight brightened things enough to be more critical.

It would be a day of mixed Carrier repairs, changing the Bulk Filters, gathering Parts for the list of projects that have to be done when the Line is down this weekend and sorting Boxes I’m finding throughout the Plant that resembled all the other Boxes that I’ve sorted. It’s as if someone lined up a number of Boxes and put the same mixture in each one similar to a child’s Candy Bag on Halloween Night and put them all over the building.

Just before lunch Kharen came into the Compound screaming at me that I left a Tool out in the Plant. It was a Grinding Stone someone would use in a drill and I’d never seen it before. When I told him so in a raised tone of voice and returned to what I was doing he just walked away. The One person that leaves Tools all over the Plant is Kharen himself. Every time I organize the Company Toolbox he comes in and leaves with half the Tools that I later find laying all around.

When I finally had the chance to speak to Paul about a Leaking Pump that I’ve asked for the parts for over a Month his attitude was “We’ll get to it when we get to it”.

Talking to Avry I was informed that the Seals on one of the Paint Pumps have to be replaced tomorrow. Having seen the leakage along the one passageway I expected that.

Just as I got my Pay Cheque Kharen asked if I was coming in tomorrow. Sounds like I might get stuck doing his dirty work.

After checking for our Mail at Guardian Storage and depositing my Cheque at Motor City Community Credit Union it felt good to sit and relax in the Apartment. We had a Store Bought Thin Crust Chicken Pizza for supper while I got caught up reading on the Computer.

The 6 o’clock Local News report 36 New Coronavirus Cases bringing the Active Cases to 255 in the Windsor/Essex Region.

The Weather Network showed our Humidex felt like 82F (28 C) this afternoon. The Rain Showers we got throughout the day helped make it feel cooler.

I am happy to report that even though I indulged myself with the See-Food Snacks last night while we visited with Kevin and Melissa they did not change my weight. Since I started working here back in May I have lost 48 Pounds and feeling good about it.

It’s about time.
