What's all this page four malarkey?

J.B. is not afraid of thunderstorm. They can be as loud as they can get and it doesn't faze him. But he was scared when the tornado went through the neighborhood. The loud whistle did upset him.

It upset me, too.

My visit to the dentist was not great. A cavity and another tooth that is slightly broken and needs to be smoothed out.

Oh, no!

The company decided to do something new, which was odd. They're now paying us a day in advance, so my paycheck appeared in my account this afternoon. Except ... they didn't tell anyone. Needless to say, a few of the 32,000 of us were a bit freaked out.

That's very strange! Do you get paid after the pay period ends? We get paid on the last day of the pay period, so if someone (in a very rare occurrence) needs to take a day without pay (or worse, quits or gets fired) before the business office can adjust things, they either have to have that amount held from their next pay check (unless they quit or were fired), or pay the money back. Fortunately, this is a very rare occurrence...although it has happened.

No. We get paid after every other week. And you work the two weeks and then get paid the following week.

There has been talk about changing our two payday dates from the 15th and last working day of the month to five days later: the 20th and the 5th of the next month. That would screw up a LOT of things for a lot of people, but if they give us enough warning, I don't think that we as employees have the choice to not get paid later.

People who were hired after a certain date are paid that way, but not everyone is...yet. We'll see if it ever happens.

And now, I need to leave work! I've been here for far too long and must get home. I actually walked to work today, so now I ~~have~~ get to walk home. Fortunately, it's close enough.

Be back later!

FInally catching up with part one of LIttle Women. Emily Watson is a great Marmee. She really acts like a mother of teenaged girls. She's wonderful.

Finished with my viewing and listening to music. I did a three-mile jog at seven-thirty. Not easy, baby, not easy, but I did it.

Good for you for walking.

DR John at least they paid you a day early instead of a day late. It is very strange they forgot to mention it.
