March 26, 2024… I remembered the pictures!!!

I am so proud of myself. I remembered to take pictures of the clay babies I made. Yay me!!!! There are 6 front and back baby pictures, so a total of 12 pictures.

Now, if I had just remembered to take a picture of the finished Thing Hand, my hubby and son has made. Maybe tomorrow… lol

I made some mushrooms today as well. I will try and get pictures tomorrow. But we all know I am not great about it. But I will try.

My family has decided to try something new this year since the Renaissance faires are not quite working out like I envisioned. But because of them, I have the majority of what I need to try something else. You see, we have a farmers market like most cities. I used to love setting up there. Then they got new management and things changed for us. Now, in 2 years, the price has almost doubled. We no longer want to set up there.

There is this other area that has shopping. It is called Western Market. These are little buildings ranging from 90 square feet to 150 square feet. You rent them for a season. May through mid-December. One of the best things about them, they are part of every downtown thing. Art fairs, food faires, bike time, and more. So it is like automatically getting into these venues I normally couldn’t. So we are going to try for that this year. We know it’s not a guarantee, but we figure, why not try.

It’s been a strange day round about new ideas kind of day. Which is always interesting. Hope you had a good day, too! Night night all and have the sweetest of dreams! Kitt ☺️

Depends on who you ask…

How has technology changed your job?

Management thinks it is great. Can I point out that management already knew nothing about the vault beyond how to count the money and check the final numbers match. So I don’t think their opinion is very valid.

If you ask my and my two co-horts, we will say it depends on whether 1. The cash machine is working and 2. If management is staying out of our jobs that they don’t understand how to do. (They have all said they have no idea how to do our job.)

When the cash machine is working, it’s fine. It’s not any easier, really, because the cash machine technology does not talk to my works technology, so I am basically a gopher between two machines.

When management tries to tell us how to do our job without understanding behind it, it makes it harder because they just say what the manual says should work. But since our systems do not talk to each other, it does not work that way. We basically ignore them and continue to do it the same way. When we were doing it the way they wanted, our safe was always off. When I changed things around, we were rarely, if ever, off. And when we are, it’s normally a system issue, not an us issue.

Technology, when utilized correctly, is an amazing thing. When used the way my job has, it’s more annoying than anything else. Kitt ☺️
