SiT

Working in Grigio Gardens taught Sleepless and I a very valuable lesson about positions of authority, specifically, supervisors.

 

There is an old adage, “Dress for the job you want, not the job you have.” Being that I was in a tank top, never nudes and wellies, I was clearly headed for a non-supervisor ‘position’ in ‘sales’ soon. On My Terms, Live Longer and Beaner – the third person to  join us as we worked in the Gardens – were all donning dresses, even though they knew that weeding was the only agenda item. That said, they dressed for the job they wanted: supervisor.

 

Beaner arrived on day two of Project Weed Removal and, unlike the other two supervisors, she was not afraid to get her hands dirty. She immediately pulled up her dress and started pulling out weeds. “It’s nice to have a supervisor who isn’t above working with the staff,” Sleepless told her. “I love this. Especially when I can get the really stubborn weeds,” Beaner responded. Such a wise supervisor. She should be on TED Talks.

 

After an hour or so of being in the weeds with us she informed us she needed to sit for a minute. “That’s the only thing the other supervisors in dresses did yesterday,” Sleepless informed her. “I think SiT stands for Supervisor in Training,” I interjected. “Sounds about right,” Sleepless said. “Maybe we should SiT for a bit,” I suggested. We did but, being that we weren’t in dresses, it didn’t feel right to SiT for too long. Today’s note to self: Wear more dresses; especially when visiting friends who are doing yard work.
