Co-op

Tonight I finished this year's work allotment for my food co-op. Weaver's Way asks us to put in 6 hours per year, which is very doable. I like to work the clean up shift after closing, because it makes me feel productive and it counts for time and a half (so I only need to do 4 hours for the year). It's time and a half because it truly is work. I spent the first hour vacuuming under every shelf. This involved getting down on the floor and manipulating the vacuum underneath as well as moving stuff around to get at it. We don't normally do this for clean up, but the store has been having some problems with mice, so we figured that the less crap lying around in hard to get places, the better. After that, I cleaned the glass doors of all of the display cases and wiped out the door tracks. I got to use a super cleaner called Citri-Solve, which took the old labeling tape right off the glass in a snap! After my shift, I went and signed up at the gym so that it will count for a work out. Given how tired I am now, I feel completely justified :-)
