Guess she has a better memory for people than you do...  ;)  At least
you know where the resources are to take care of situations... ;)

 JM> She also walks very slowly due to her age.  There's a joke among us
 JM> that if the fire alarm went off someone would have to help _her_ out
 JM> the building.  :)
 JM> Its only due to insurance reasons/costs we are even there.  Just in
 JM> case.  SO far so good.

And you get paid doing it.... not bad at all... ;)

 JM> I have always told people who were whining about something they
 JM> couldn't beat me, I had it down pat and the biggest whiner around.
 JM> Usually this has to do with working in bad weather, hours, etc.  
 JM> I didn't really enjoy it, but it's part of the job.

And practice makes perfect.... ;)
