Suprise Visit from the Regional Manager

I arrived at the bank this morning and saw one of my coworkers wearing pantie hose! I knew something must be awry. Sure enough when my Supervisor checked me in this morning he informed me that the boss's boss was at the branch today; we were going to open many more accounts today and we were going to be perfectly polished and professional. I myself wore a nice sweater for the occasion-- forgetting that our normal 'arctic freeze' air conditioning is currently broken.

So our manager James was on his best behavior which rubbed off on the tellers. I got to meat the regional manager briefly. By the end of the day before I left James told me that she had pointed me out above all the tellers because I smiled at every customer and had the Bank of America Spirit. It's good to have been noticed by the branch manager this early on in the game :-) So, in the end my manager is happy with me.

Charles has started receiving lots of mail from UCSB. It's nice to be reminded finally why were all the way over here in California. He's been pouring over the course listings and the TA training schedule. He plans on taking as many qualifying exams before courses start-- I'm so proud of him.

In the mean time, he likes to make sure that he's done something around the apartment before I've come home from work. Did you vacuum the carpet? Where'd the dirty dishes go? Not to mention he makes me lunch and dinner everyday. And coffee in the morning. :-D I'm really digging this whole newly wed thing.

I'll have to make sure and make it up to him some how-- maybe packing his lunches once classes start.
