Work!

Work is a necessity for man. Man invented the alarm clock.

Pablo Picasso

It has been a very long time since I worked shifts as a short-order cook at the steel plant, driving the family car to work at times of the day when only shift workers were on the road. I remembered those times fondly as I drove to my first job in the homeland in 15 years. For one week I will fill in as a personal care worker for a sweet and fragile 82-year-old woman. I am very happy to be working again and (so far) am keen to be on the road and off to work by 6:30 A.M. I am once again in the community of the employed. Yeah!
