By far, the most exciting part of this semester has been all the new kids working in the mailroom. We train from sun up till sun down on weekdays, everything from sorting the mail, to doing rounds, to collecting the maximum amount of candy slyly from candy dishes in each office of the Owens Center, to copy jobs, to walking at the right pace so that the broken mail cart does not rattle to dodging the every present pick up lines from Tyler... let’s just say, training has been eventful. Yesterday, Ian was up to bat and was learning the art and tactic of the closing shift [3:00 pm to 4:30 pm]. This round consists of afternoon pick up rounds and package drop offs in the Owen Center, running the packages and letters through “Betty”, our “not so faithful” weighing and stamping machine, getting the mail sorted to be dropped off at FedEx and NorCal Presort, closing up the cash register and off course catering to the needs of those desperate students looking for packages that they claim their moms sent “weeks ago”. The greatest part about the closing shift is driving the mail in the Campus Safety Van. This baby is equipped with all of your safety essentials and has been more faithful than Betty, that’s for sure. Today Ian took shotgun and learned the ropes in hopes of one day sitting behind the wheel.

I feel like campus safety might be your second calling Janelle. Our campus would be even safer in your spotlight holding hands.
