Bad day... Kinda

So I was on duty for the 2nd time yesterday (Saturday), and man was it hard.

The day started off with my thought for the day, I did the Dudley Do Right Skit, which went over really well and got everyone laughing. I then had to do a check in at lunch (first one ever...so kinda scary) but I think it went well. Then I came back to the staff room and watched everyone of the short term staff practice for their skit/song which was really funny. Then back to work at the Kanderlodge.

Dinner went by pretty good, the catrering team was really well organized and ready to go before I got there. Then after dinner, or well still during dinner. The group we were catering for arrived late, and they wanted to go the campfire also so I'm sure they arrived late to the fire. Anyways, everyone left me to clean the kitchen while they went to the campfire. So the group came ate late, and the leaders decided to hang areound and talk so I had to wait for them to finish and finish doing the dishes, and mop. But while I was cleaning, I got a call saying that the check in I checked in today wanted to check out, so I had to dig through paper work, call people and see what to do, and what to charge... if anything!

Needless to say, I got everything sorted out with the lady, and the leaders of the group I'm sure arrived late to the campfire, and I didn't end up finishing kitchen untill shortly after 2100 hours. Which was ok I guess I then got to go sit for an hour before the leaders wanted some drinks, and then went on my Chalet walk, which after that I got to put down the phone and really relax unless something major happens.

Umm what else has been happening... oh I was on grounds, excited to drive the vehicles however no luck, first day the grounds person was off, then the 2nd day was a holiday and its illegal to operate machinery or power tools on holidays or Sundays. Instead I dug out a fire pit, and fire circle for one that I wasn't going to. The fire pit was under about 60 cm (2 feet) of wet heavy snow, and the stage was under about 45cm (1.5 feet) of snow.

From skiing I now look like Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer (I either blistered or peeled a circle on the tip of my nose, and its horrible), and I am under the ears. The funny thing is I did put on sun screen, and I am burnt no where else.

For staff night out, we had a Toga party and hiballs (nice change up from beer) and everyone looked amazing in their toga's.

Staff Night out is tomorrow, and we are having a BBQ... good times, mmmmm BBQ (*drool*)

Things are going great, I do believe it is a month today that I have been here at KISC. Wow time has flown bye!
