Moving Day
Move Day
I finally have time to take a breath and recap some things from the past few weeks. On 9 Jul 18, we were packed and then on 10 Jul 18, the moving truck showed up and took all our belongings. As our house wont be done for another couple months we had all of our furniture put into storage. The moving crew that showed up worked so very hard and did a fantastic job of moving our furniture onto the truck while making sure they were careful not to damage the walls. We had a couple of very big and heavy bedroom pieces, they worked their asses off and for that Sandra and I were grateful.
We've moved a few times, and this day was hot. Hydration is important. We made sure we let them know the watercooler was at their disposal and we provided a case of Powerade. Sandra brought the crew a full subway lunch (it was comical sending her the order for five subs - LOL). She did a great job and everyone was happy.
These movers are young people who make mimimum wage, I was very disheartened when they told me there are people out there who don't offer anything to them for their efforts. They told me there are times they actually have to ask if they can have a glass of tap water. Shame on those people who are so uncaring!
At the end of the day we gave each of the moving crew a $20 tip for the efforts and we thanked them and expressed our gratitude for a job well done!
