Count Your Blessings
January is inventory month (in more ways than one). Thursday and Friday, we took inventory. My right hand will spend most of Tuesday reconciling and adjusting. Thursday, I report to the board.
Having temps work with us has advantages and disadvantages. It gives us a chance to try them out and them a chance to try us on for size. It also means (usually) that we don't do an interview ahead of time. A lot of the time, we get good workers (and we have hired several in the past year). Other times, we get a clunker. We've had a couple clunkers recently, and as a result, there wll be many inventory adjustments.
