I met with Owen for orientation. Met with Jessi to talk about general house culture stuff. Had another culture interview. Star: How do we schedule culture interviews? Kaycie: we can schedule one… I've been prioritizing ppl we haven't talked to much but it's not systematic.

Labor Czar:
we have a new schedule and I sent it out. I haven't heard of changes needed. please vote–ballots close at the end of the meeting. almost done with labor accountability report. Star: are we going to 5 lumps with Justin on the schedule. Rowan: I can't answer that now but I forgot to put him on the schedule

Still waiting on Room 13 to get finished up. Fay is still in Rm 12. The Owens are all moved in and are currently doing orientation. Justin should be added to the schedule soon. hopefully that'll give us flexibility.

Steward:
Thanks for allowing me to step back a little bit since work has been super busy–i think I put enough social currency in our labor of love bank before kinda stepping back a bit this week. Please come to next week's heart meeting since Kaycie and I will be leading a revisioning Sasona meeting. Rowan: are you still doing the surveys? Jessi: yes please do the surveys, please and thankyou
Treasurer:
NP Rep:
Operations Manager: Bookkeeper: I'll be training Justin ASAP I need to leave this upcoming week so hopefully we'll be able to meet and have that go smoothly. I'm working on resolving the CODE BROWN by calling the environmental services that cleaned out the grease trap recently. I have materials in order to attempt to clean it out myself. it'll be a shit show but it'll be alright. Fay's room–Gilberto is coming back to work on that room to do some stuff in the bathroom and hallway and also he'll be working on the dark side door. Hopefully the AC guys will come this week to check the refrigerant levels. quick note that window units need to be cleaned regularly. the roof patching will also happen this week. we still need to get a roofer out to look at the holes. NP meeting happened yesterday and today. Thanks for getting the votes in–Paul has been sworn in to represent CHEA at NASCO. I was only able to attend a little bit. some had questions and concerns about our open membership policy, and I explained we CHEA said we had an open membership policy. Maggie (staff) said they hadn't really have a problem with open membership policy but have concerns. Paul is a proponent of the open membership policy and explained how it works. Dublin, a property in Chicago, is going to be rebooted. Rowan: what's regularly–weekly/monthly/every other month for the AC in the kitchen? David M: I noticed it was dirty on the outside, so we need to clean it regularly. Rowan: let's add it to the Kitchen Manager maintenance document.
