I hope you’re enjoying this summer, it’s been going by at lightning speed.
Parking Lot Updates
The contractor incorrectly poured the concrete sidewalk again… They will be ripping that up for the 4th time and redoing it. They are re-ordering the paving projects to get as much done in this fiscal year. They will finish the back lot and move up the OSW side of the parking lot, but for obvious reasons will have to skip that small parking lot up front until they get the concrete done. As soon as those parking lots are done and striped, they’ll open up those and skip over to the main lots. (Part of me wonders if this contractor was the same one running the construction around the Tacoma Dome for the last 25 years…)
Lori Olson Going Away
Lori is leaving us for the good life. There are some cards by the OM desk that you are welcome to fill out for her. She has been a long-time FAA employee and has taken care of us more than you’ll probably ever know throughout her years of service. She will be sorely missed, and we wish her a wonderful life. If you’d like, you can stop by the QC Conference room at 11:30 on 8/9 to bid farewell. There will be snacks and drinks.
Building Maintenance
I spoke to Dawn and Takashi about de-programming the locks that lead to the bathroom near the cafeteria. For some reason, they started locking that area on nights and weekends. That should all be fixed now. I also spoke to tech ops about the a/c on the third floor of the OSW building and how it shuts down on nights and weekends. Evidently, they put it on an occupancy sensor, that’s why it would shut down and get crazy hot up here. That should be fixed too. Takashi is bringing in a couch to replace one of the ripped ones in the pool room tomorrow. If you’re here and willing, he could use some help moving it all in.
Please let me know if there’s anything else I can work on getting fixed.
Thank you,
Amy
