Missy was super excited as they ended the first day. Goldie was amazing!
Within a few hours, she had a strategy in place that made things run smoother and more efficient. She spent her lunch hour looking over the financial sheets and found with a few tweaks that Missy could afford to hire some part-time help.
Goldie convinced her this would be a good idea, as Goldie and the help hired could run the shop allowing her more time to work on her recipes. She couldn't believe in just a few short hours that most of her problems were resolved.
She hugged Goldie good-bye and closed up shop. She closed late in the afternoon as the muffin crowd tended to thin out after lunch.
"I really can't thank you enough," Missy said. "You wandered into my shop and in a few short hours fix everything. You're amazing."
Goldie blushed at the praise. "Thanks." It felt good, she was determined to do better than a good job and it was nice to know that it showed. "What time should I come in tomorrow?"
"Well we open early for the breakfast crowd, is 8 am good?" Missy asked.
"Perfect!" Goldie said, it was an hour before she had to be in at the diner but it was no 6 am like at Granny's Cakes.
"Looking forward to another great day! Thanks again!" Missy said waving to her before heading off to home.
"Until tomorrow," Goldie waved feeling quite satisfied with her progress so far. She pulled out her phone and sent Red a text.
Got a new job. Manager. Tell you all about it soon. Hugs. Goldie
She immediately got a text back and had to laugh at the quick response.
Want to hear all about it A.S.A.P. You had me worried, as you didn't answer your phone for the last couple of hours. Stop by the diner... dinner is on me. Hugs Red.
Goldie looked and seen the missed messages. She had turned her phone off. She should have thought ahead that Red would have been worried about her and called her at lunch but then she wouldn't have found a way to hire part-time help if she had done that so...may be it was meant to be. Her stomach growled and the thought of dinner at the diner was a great way to celebrate.
Missy had entered her apartment and stopped short when she had seen Bear, with a beer in his hand and two others empty sitting on the kitchen table. She picked up the empty bottles and placed them in the recycling.
"Since when did you start getting trashed in the middle of the afternoon?" she asked from the kitchen. He hadn't said two words to her since she came in.
"It's been beyond a bad day," Bear said just staring at that wood table.
"Really, mine was awesome thanks for asking," she said, when he didn't banter back she was concerned and sat beside him, "What's going on?"
