For the love...

Last time we used the RV, we noticed the water supply line to the toilet was leaking. We were going to take the RV to the Campbell reunion and I really wanted the toilet working. It's important. So I watched the required YouTube videos and figured out how to get the dang thing off. I went to an RV store in Washington and way overpaid for a new water supply valve. (Money could've been saved if I had enough time to order from Amazon but I needed it today.) It's fine. I was able to put it back together after spraying the whole toilet off and BOOM! Worked like a champ, no leaky leaky!  


I know it's dumb, but I really find joy in fixing things.

Just an update on Maxine and her job. Yeah, it's not working out. People swear, there's no management, they leave two 15-16-year old kids to work the afternoon shift. They have to take orders, cook the orders, and keep the dining area clean. There was a creepy old man who would hang around that the female employees warned her about. And the last straw was management told her to clock out at 9:00 p.m. but stay and clean until everything was done. I'll say it, Maxine's not a fast cleaner. Especially after an 8-hour shift. She'd be there until 9:30-10:00 p.m! If they didn't get everything done, they'd be in trouble the next day. You can't have kids stay and work and not pay them. We told her to tender her resignation and give her two week's notice. It's fine because she earned money and we have the month of July to play. Good riddance. I tried not to be the crazy Mom on this one but when they are breaking labor laws, it's time to go.
