I was invited to have lunch with a different team since I support them. They decided on Pappadeaux and from what I could understand from the manager, it seems I’ll be invited to others down the line. We all shared appetizers and each got to order an entree. I was able to make conversation with everyone and learned more about them which helps build relationships and such. I’m not so nervous around the manager now due to being invited to these things so that helps. Our own team doesn’t even do this so it’s nice to get away from the desk.
When we got back the Halloween party had already started. I think this is the first time any Halloween stuff has been celebrated at work with goodie bags and everything. It’s nice that the admins did that and even got the managers to say something nice.
I went and mentored the high schoolers today. They asked if I’d come back next year when though they’d already have graduated. I told them I don’t know because I don’t want any other kids. I like them and it’s sad to watch people leave. Then I got teary eyed thinking of them graduating from high school, going to college, graduating and getting jobs. I love watching people grow.
We are packed and currently about to fall asleep at Sissy’s as our adventure starts tomorrow. It’s going to be freezing and we don’t have anything planned. We’d probably just stuff our faces only. Fingers crossed all goes well.
