A Farewell To Patty.

 Patty from our in-bound team, will be leaving the Zebra Warehouse.   Monday will be her last day.   And that is Sad....  She will be joining the Haribo Factory and Warehouse across the street.... With Phil. (Remember Phil?  The Witness Protection Guy?)    Well now Haribo has claimed three Zebras from our Herd....  Phil, Veronica, and now Patty.   All excellent workers. ( except for Phil....) 

Now it is true that we managed to "rescue" Veronica back from the sugar bears.   But I doubt we will have much luck with Patty as her hubby also works there; and I'm guessing this move has been in the works for a long time.  Together,  they will be able to carpool together,  have lunch together, and basically double their Gummy Bear stipend each month.   ( Something Phil promised us, but never delivered!) 

I suppose I'm a little to blame as every time I mention someone on the blog, they seem to get pulled away to greener pastures.   Or in  this case... Rainbow gummy bear pastures!  I will try to refrain from mentioning any of my other coworkers in this blog so they do not get sucked into the void of sweet chewy goodness as well.  Nope...  They will  be members of the Zebra Herd for years.... and years.... and years!

That kind of leaves a hole in the Inbound teams after Monday.   Who will be our Trouble Shooter when paperwork comes in  missing ASNs or pallet counts are missing items?  I guess the bosses could fill that role.   When they are actually around....   Or perhaps Rachel.   Or Alison...But they have their own focus and probably will not be as "helpful" as Patty was.   We will just have to wait and find out I guess. 

In the mean time....Life continues at the Zebra as if nothing else in the world matters.   Stuff comes in,  we receive it and put it away.   Somewhere else,  they pick it and ship it out the door to some other location.  And we are just parts of the Machine that makes it all work.  Life fulfillment at its best!

As for me.... I have bigger plans.   Well,  Big plans for me.   But I will save those moments for later... and a longer blog post.   In the mean time,  My Dishwasher Repair did not go as planned.   My Mushroom Hunt was rather disappointing,  and I did not take enough pictures of the Crock Pot cook-off to mention it for the blog.   So...  Kind of a unfulfilled weekend for me as an individual.  

But I did manage to work on the fish and do the typical weekend things.  So, overall,   a restful weekend.  Ready for Monday!  Hopefully this week will go as quickly as last week and we will have more to blog about.   Good things!   

In the mean time,   A farewell to Patty!   She will be missed!  And we hope she finds happiness and success at her new job making Teddy Bears out of Rainbows at the Haribo.  Along with Phil....  (Remember Phil?   He was in the witness protection program....) Who never gave us Gummies!   

At least Patty brought us Gummies..... Just sayin'....
