A later start this morning, shift 10-3. Stopping at the drugstore to pick up some cold and sinus remedy, checked with the pharmacist to make sure it was what I needed and then headed on to shift.
Checking in there were 3 of us starting at 10am in transport. Wayne, Teresa and myself.
There was no one in the transport office, other than drivers, and Tucker, when he arrived, didn't have any idea what we needed to do, so we basically had no role to do today as there was minimal transport movement due to it being a training day rather than competition. So, we were left to our own devices.
Wayne also works with Boeing, a supporting partner, so he was happy to head off to do some emails and head to their stand.
Teresa and I went to hunt down Barb, the hospitality manager we had worked with before, so we ended up moving snacks around to various locations within the building.
Starting in workforce check-in, we sorted and tidied the snack table,
then took snacks into the Nations Home area near the snack bar where there's a store room for restocking. As access to most areas is behind the scenes, access checks are minimal. So when we headed to restock water in the athletes lounge through the back way there's a lot of reliance on the fact that having come through security initially we are OK to be there even though we don't actually have clearance for the areas we were in. That's one for the feedback maybe.
With only a 5 hour shift, we didn't get a meal voucher so snacks for lunch then.
Barb was trying to get rid of the snacks as they'd had so many delivered, so at the end of the shift, we headed away with fruit, chocolate and other snacks.
Just before 3, I headed back to the appartment to try and relax a bit. Fresh oranges, tea and an early night.
Tomorrow I have a free day, I hope it'll be dry and my head isn't full of fuzz, so I can head out and see some sights.
Oooh and a late email to say that I'd been allocated a closing ceremony ticket in the ballot we'd applied to yesterday. So, no choosing what price tickets to get. Looks like Ian too was allocated one. Bonus for both of us.
Have to collect tomorrow afternoon, so depending where my tourism takes me, I'll at least need to go to workforce to collect that.
