Sweet November

This is the kind of week that can make us all miss daily operation. We've spent the past few days cooped up in the offices, working on SOP revisions, discussing training, retention, planning for 09's divisional layout... None of us have this job because we like to be stuck in an office all day. In short, it's been a long, and quiet week.

On Monday, Jen, the Park Services Manager, got a hold of a rather large quantity of taffy.
Now, in and of it self, there is nothing wrong with having a lot of taffy. I, personally, am not a fan of it and would rather eat glue, but there's nothing inherently wrong with a lot of taffy. Obviously, it makes a great snack (for most people--I still hate it) and keeps our nation's dentists in business. A little known fact, however, is that taffy makes a great sculpting compound.

(This was supposed to be a tree.)
...so, like I said, there is nothing wrong with having a lot of taffy.
That is, unless it's Jen who has a lot of taffy.
Before long, our innocent, break-time taffy craft session turned into a playground of destruction and pain, with sweet, sugary missiles flying in all directions.
That day, Sara learned that taffy has a dark side.

Aside from confectionary chaos, there isn't much else going on right now. We're planning details for our Winter Party, which will be held sometime in early January, so stay tuned for details.


Come to the party or else! (just kidding...)

  1. I agree with John Taffyn is gross. So next i get taffy in any kindof gift i will just use it to make some sculpture. The offseason sounds fun and i miss working at the park. When do we come back to start trainings?
