Sophie's trip to the store

Today Sophie spent an hour and a half at Kroger trying to get a deep freeze. See if she used the Kroger card and bought $25 dollars worth of Kroger's food she could get the deep freeze for $99, which is a good deal as we have been pricing freezers for a while. However, she proceeded to the check out not knowing that only 'frozen' foods were eligible to count for the $25. To which she responded that that logic didn't make any sense, because you are just now buying the freezer and by the time you got it home and plugged in and running below freezing all the food would be thawed out. This was the first attempt at checking out so she told them that since she didn't have the eligible amount she didn't want to check out yet and they would have to restock her stuff from this trip to the check out since she was going to have to go back and get 'frozen' foods. (side note: this is funny because of the checkout post I just did. I showed it to Sophie, but she didn't think it was funny.) So she goes back and now gets 'frozen' foods and checks out 90 minutes after entering the store. She asked me if I wanted to trade days, let's see...

At about 8:30 this morning the foreman left for his mother's surgery, so I filled in, at which point we started making non-standard and had to go to the road. So I had to get the relief to the road and had to watch oil trucks until somebody else could go down. Meanwhile, we made changes to get the grade out of the road and right when it was good we plug the pulverisor and had to shut down. Then we lit off the reject pulseair collector and had to re-bag it. And I mixed up a new tank of potassium for unit 4. Also found two things that needed re-ranged on the DCS and did the daily production. Still wouldn't have traded Sophie for her day.
