Duty

I had my first Duty roll yesterday
Here at the Centre Duty is your 24 hour on-call time. You take a phone around with you on off hours and breaks, and have to stay at the centre so there is someone who knows how to use the fire panel. As Duty person you also have to come up with a thought, for the morning meeting

So I was duty yesterday, I showed the video clip of the kung fu bear (Salmon Commerical) and ya it was good, carried the phone around, no calls at lunch... thankfully!! Although After dinner was interesting. KISC participated in Earth Hour, so we had a fire and candle light guitar session for an hour, after that I was left alone in The Chalet, while everyone went to a farwell party for one of the Long term staff, and appearently is was rockin! Whatever I got done much needed work on the staff board.

It was also the beginning of Day Light Savings Time here, so now back home it is an eight (8) hour time difference, although I'm not sure if that is a good or bad thing yet.

I am on Catering today so I have an extra long lunch break, we have to go back at 1600 hours so we can start dinner for everyone, and today there are no long term staff to man catering so it is 3 short termers rather then one or two.

It has been snowing for the past 3 days and it looks amazing outside!

Staff night out this week was a blast we did end up going curling. I think everyone had fun, which is good becuase most have never played before. After Curling we went to the bar, and ya haha back home.

It's been a long week so I am tired and thats why I'm all over the place.
chaio for now!
