A few updates for you to round out March.
First - I would like to welcome Christopher Costanzo to the C-Area! He has been great about coming down to visit the floor and monitor the operation. Welcome Christopher!
Our 3 new D-side trainees will be joining us on the floor full time this week. There will be a LOT of training happening in the area, which is a great thing. A couple of gentle reminders for everyone…..
We will all be impacted by the amount of training we need to get accomplished so we can get people certified. Please be patient and kind when it comes to getting our trainees time.
Please remember to check your schedule on a regular basis! There is a lot of overtime coming down the pike as we roll into summer, and I completely understand that we can’t schedule our lives outside of work based on if we might get assigned overtime. Having said that, if you need out of your overtime, please do some leg work and see if there’s anyone you can swap with or cover part of your shift. If you need a 2nd set of eyes to help you navigate this, please reach out, I would be happy to look at this with you.
We finally got the ZSE/ZLC LOA back and I will review it soon. Pending everything looks good, you can expect to be briefed on it mid-April before it goes into effect towards the end of April. I will keep you posted.
I will be on vacation 4/6-4/15 and while I may be able to be reached if I am in cell service, I don’t want there to be any confusion on whether or not I care or want to be contacted. Having said this, I would rather you have Devin to fall back on while I’m out of town (thank you for being available Devin!) or you can save your concerns/complaints/comments/questions for when I return. If you have any questions about this, please feel free to ask.
There are no recent updates on the chair situation, but I will follow up with it and keep you posted. There have been some concerns about the broken or slow-moving chairs in the building but there has not been any follow up lately with it.
I am happy to report that both CZ and PM are in possession of the photo frames that were signed for them!
As always, I am here if you need anything and will do my best to ensure you’re getting info in a timely manner. Thank you all for everything you do, and know I appreciate you!
Take care,
Crumbley
