After a break of about a month, Sam was back to work at the school cafeteria today. The pandemic continues to affect where he works and what he's doing, just as it does for almost everyone everywhere (at least, those that pay attention and take it seriously) - but the bottom line is, for now, he still has a job.
It's a shortened schedule for Sam, at least compared to last year's schedule - only three, three hour days compared to last year's five, four hour days (which was reduced from five, five hour days), but it's more than his shorter two, three hour days which was his summer work schedule (got it?).
This fall, all the cafeteria workers from all of the local schools are now working out of the one cafeteria at the middle school. They spend their days bagging breakfasts and lunches which are then distributed to drop points around town, all for the kids being schooled at home - which, for now, is every school-aged kid in town. I'm told this amounts to between 900 to 1000 meals per day.
So it keeps him busy and keeps him productive. Sam's happy to be working. His supervisor seems to be happy with him (near as I can tell) and other than that, I don't have a lot to say about this - other than, thank god.
