Hi Jess,

First off, congratulations on your new career! And in the legal field, no less. Very impressive.

Now, onto the less-than-terrific news. It looks like it’s just you and Patricia as volunteers, so I’ll need you to cover the payments desk and the two of you can share the washing station. Theoretically, the students will do the actual work, so you won’t actually have to wash the dogs yourself. Just supervise.

Speaking of students, I’ve noticed Winnie hasn’t signed up. Is there any chance she can make it, because we’re short on students too.

In good news, I’ll be able to pop by the store to help see to it that you get off to a good start before I have to jet for the day. Honestly, be glad you’re working for a law office and not as an HR director. My time is not my own.

How’d you make out with the towels? I found three I can donate, so if you’re short by a few, I’ve got you covered.

Regards,

Blaire

Hi Blaire,

Unfortunately, Winnie can’t make it as she’ll be at the library that day getting in her community service hours. These kiddos are just too busy!

I’m sure Patricia and I will be able to handle all three stations. Fingers crossed that there will be enough students.

I do have the towels. I zipped over to a few thrift stores on my lunch break.

See you, and I’m assuming, Hannah, tomorrow morning,

Jess

Hi Jess,

Agreed about our poor children being far too busy! Hannah can’t make it either. She’ll be at a swim meet all weekend.

See you tomorrow!
