The Office

When I come to work on Mondays, I often find little notes taped to my computer like the ones I found this week.  It is always so heartwarming to get a little thank you note.  I am grateful that the missionaries write to me.  We do have some wonderful conversations together.

 Because some have asked, here is a  photo of me at work in the office.  Sister Conway faces me and we are so happy that we get along well and enjoy each other's company.  We like each other and like working together.  We can talk about the good things and also we can discuss the frustrations.  When needed we always help each other out.  It sure makes for great working conditions.

 This is a photo of an order that has arrived.  I will open (have opened some) each box and then I will count and check off each item that has arrived.  Then I need to compare it to the order that I submitted to make sure each item has arrived or if there is a back order.  I have several papers that I have to go through for each item.  If I receive 50 forms, for example, I need to count each form.  If I get 10 packs of 25 brochures, I need to count each one to make sure that the order has been correctly filled and processed.  Then I file each paper in a certain designated spot.

 My next task is to put each item in the correct spot in the supply room.  Each stack of Books of Mormon is in a different language.  The English, French, and Spanish books are in a different area because we use so many of them.  I think it's interesting to look at some of the books and see the different languages.

                      I have gone to a lot of work to make everything orderly in the supply room.

 We work really hard here every single day.  We begin soon after 8:00 and work till after 5:00.  We are busy every single minute.  We take about a 15 minute lunch and often it is only 10 minutes.  The work is just never done.
