In San Bernardino

6:11pm, pacific standard time, apartment in San Bernardino, California, USA, Monday evening, March 12, 2023. I am currently in San Bernardino, California. There is a one day Director meeting that starts at 8:30am tomorrow morning. All the branch leaders from across the state traveled in today and are staying at local hotels. Last week there was talk of a group dinner happening tonight but, I am not sure if it materialized. Either way, it is alright. I stayed in my room and ordered delivery. I figure I will spend all day with them tomorrow, no need to go out and socialize tonight. After the meeting I head to Palm Desert. Frankly, I am glad it is a short week. I am becoming more convinced a Director needs to be found soon, both for me and for the office. They need a permanent leader that is going to take the reins and help then realize their potential. The longer I stay in place the harder it will be to transition once someone is hired.
