Avoiding red ink

Alas, the Ruth Ellis Center is cutting hours and staff to make sure they don't fall into the red. It used to be open 12:30 - 9:00 daily and serving both lunch and supper. Now it will be 3:00-9:00 Monday-Friday. When I started the evening staff included Rasool, April, Carol, Smoke, and Monty the intern, whose schedules were set up so every day was covered. Rasool has left, Monty's internship has ended, and Smoke now moves over to the Ruth Ellis House. That leaves Carol and April working a standard week. There is a new intern named Kelly who only comes Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I haven't met him.

Today's crowd was light because the weather was so nice. It didn't take long at all to fill the dishwasher.
