Happy May Day

Had my last day at the tax office. Sink was clogged and printer was out of paper. Apparently the manager was not in any hurry to fix the issues. Oh well, not my problem anymore. Brushed the cats and had enough hair from the brush to make a new kitten. Rescued Eowyn ferret with a ponytail holder around her neck like a collar. Reminded me of the day she was scampering around with a toilet paper tube on her head. Ferret mom to the rescue. Had my heart attack for the day. Got home from work, open the garage door (the hard way by lifting it up), and rustling noise was heard by the garbage cans. All of a sudden, a fluffy brown rabbit with with powder puff white tail jumped out from behind the garbage cans to make a mad dash down the driveway and into the neighbor's yard. I guess I woke Mr. Bunny from his nap. Misty chased her first baby rabbit (relax, bunny escaped into the neighbors' yard). Luthien ferret discovered the dirt under the gate had been scratched away to create a hole she can fit under (I grabbed her tushy and pulled her back through the hole. Nephew got a new job at a fast food place and no longer available to mow my lawn. Have to do it myself. Learned to take my inhaler before going out to mow so don't have asthma attacks during my mowing. Had flurries on the April day I was going to plant seeds in my yard. Had wait to plant them. Had to look up the frost date for my area for some of the seed packets. Lost a hotel maid. Apparently they quit right after they started. Management is getting desperate for workers that they are begging us for referrals. They will pay us $25 if our referral gets hired and $100 if they work 90 days. Sorry, most people I know work in offices or construction sites. I got called into work on my 2 days off cause somebody can't show up for their damn job, again. At least manager was covering one night so I got one night off. My poor manager, a maid and the head housekeeper decided not to show up for work so 1 maid was cleaning 60 rooms. Coworkers are dropping like flies. Sent a text message to the manager asking to have the night auditor job cause I was getting tired of covering the current night auditor's butt, I've done it for months. Manager agreed so I got promoted to night auditor with a raise and stable schedule. It was very hard on my body bouncing from day to overnight hours. Now old night auditor was knocked down to 2 days a week and decided to stop coming to work. Their sob story was their baby mama got arrested for drug possession while their kid was her car so he had to go pick up his daughter. Then human services checked on the kid and he lost his daughter to foster care. He said he was working hard to get his daughter back and suddenly stopped coming to work. No idea what happened to him. Sheriff stopped by the hotel looking for him and I told the officier when he next worked. Then he didn't come to work that night and I had to go fill in on my night off. Don't think he will get his daughter back from foster care anytime soon. Hotel manager started purchasing new teas for our tea station next to the coffee station. We have mint tea, lemon black tea, greeen tea, Earl Grey tea, Chamomille Tea, black Tea, and orange pekoe Tea. I prefer the mint and green teas, don't need sugar. Black teas are a little harsh and need 2 packets of sugar to drink it.
