Obviously no thought went into problem weather conditions on the part of the administration. So I can only think if it had been windy, thundering and raining, the Vets would have been expected to go outside for that kind of weather also.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8729134734350339898.post-45610986829183477542012-06-30T18:00:03.672-04:002012-06-30T18:00:03.672-04:00Great idea in theory and the Home got help around ...Great idea in theory and the Home got help around the grounds with some of their front beds which do look much improved with the new mulch. <br /><br />The Altria employees were amazing super stars working in that heat BUT also were in danger of having some heat related health issues. So...I do agree that for the health and safety of the Vets as well as the Altria workers maybe this should have been rescheduled or at least cut short.<br /><br />Another factor which is not mentioned in your blog (and definitely supports your position) is that the Home was lacking AC for large portions of the day starting in the AM so there was no relief for the workers as well as the Vets throughout the day. <br /><br />But, again the beds do look spruced up and thank you to those Altria employees for food, music and gardening work done. The administration, however, should have used better judgement.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
