Waiting.
Waiting. That's all there is to life now.
Rather be sitting fireside at the Franklin sipping a cocktail. Instead I'm sitting around the house, maybe wandering out 2-3 times a week for supplies. Running the car's engine for 20 minutes every week so the batt doesn't die. Re-watching the Wire. Ordering GrubHub. It's a grind. So bored.
Work fine, still doing it from home and likely will be able to for most if not all of April. That's been a good thing about being under contract offsite rather than working directly for TFS, TFS peeps are having hour cut backs and worse. As long as we can get back onsite in early May I should have no income loss and in fact probably a surplus. I'm not buying gas, I'm not going out on weekends, I'm not buying anything that's not an essential, so all those savings plus the coronabux will stack up. Which could put me in good financial stead for...
...Vegas.
I have 3 trips booked, one for early May, one for late May, one for early June. Current scenarios are thus:
A) Job safe. Site stays shut until some time in later May. Strip opens May 1. I go on early May trip to Delano using PTO or "working from home".
B) Job safe. Site opens May 1-ish and I'm able to get back and get everything settled. Strip opens in early to mid May. I cancel the early May trip and go on late May trip to Delano using PTO.
C) Strip stays shut through May. No idea what job situation would be by then, but if safe, I cancel May trips and go on early June trip to MGM.
D) Job not safe at any time - all bets are off until I am able to determine return to work status and UI benefits, possible Vegas trip spring/summer if work/strip situation settles.
So yeah, waiting.
