ravena_kadeBoss lady called Dad. The sister in law is being sent home with Hospice. They give her maybe a week.
She told him about part time. He's not pleased with it, but it's better than nothing and If I get caught up he keeps his car for another 18 months. He mentioned the coworker sounding like she didn't want to help and that she didn't want him back. Boss lady said she did't know about that (Yes she did. I told her) . Dad told her that I had the letter from the medical people and she sent 3 addresses to email it to.
I talked with him a bit to try and find out just what she said. He would have been hurt and pissed off if she told him what she told me. Maybe my reaction to her told her not to try it with Dad. F legacy. Take the money and enjoy your grand kids. I tried to impress upon Dad not to offer opinions to Ted, the head boss, that could seem to be criticizing. He just kept saying that Ted likes him. I said maybe, but not enough to give you full time. (Yes, I'm jaded).
A few hours later Dad got a call from the woman who will be the office manager once Boss Lady goes. She likes Dad. She likes him enough that she hems things for us. She needed to know where something was and how to fix a machine. I was glad to hear that conversation. He is useful. She asked when he was coming back. He told her about the letter and that they would only let him back part time. She was disappointed. I was happy to hear the conversation. Maybe she can get someone in our town to give him a ride. Maybe she can be his new buddy and get Ted boss to keep him for another year.
During my lunch break I went to the fridge and from the window I saw table legs flying off the deck. Dad was outside taking apart the old metal table and throwing it off the deck. It was way over 10 pounds. He had put together the chairs to the new set in the living room (he's so bored at home). Tomorrow I will move the new table top up to the deck. The thing came flat packed and weighs a ton.
