Eventful day in palm desert

5:30pm, pacific standard time, sandwich shop in Palm Desert, California, USA, Tuesday night, March 7, 2023. I ordered a sandwich online for pick-up but, they didn’t have an ingredient prepared and needed it to complete my order. So, I am killing time writing this post. It was a busy day at work. Lots of new patients coming on service. Consequently, everyone is stressed. The branch is in growth mode after months spent working to get the right team in place. I have to remind myself; it is just as hard to ride upward momentum as it is creating it. We can’t stop now, we have to continue what we started. 5:41pm, one of the reps at work just called. She was in a car accident and her car is totaled. It was a brand new company car she just got on Friday. Luckily, she is alright and her husband is with her but, she sounded pretty shaken over the phone.
