Different Kind of Day at Work


Jessicatoyou

1,851 views

Last weekend was a long weekend off for me, Friday, Sat, Sun and Monday off from my "retirement"  part time job with a Medi- Transportation Co., picking up clients and bringing them to their medical appointments. Was looking forward to the continuity of being able to live life just as Jess, and I did just that.   By Monday night, I dreaded Tuesday having to return to boy mode and go back to work.  That evening, I got my text from the boss, also a business friend, for Tuesday's assignment asking if it would be okay with me.  (have been working more or less on call, as needed). " Pick up a couple from Albany, NY at 6am going to Boston Med, wait several hours, and return them to Albany, an all day transport. (about 10 hours)

Tuesday, up at 3:30 am (had to leave my house by 5am.)   THEN, I got the bright idea!  This is gonna be a job for Jess!🙋‍♀️  I washed, threw on my girl Jeans, a top,  my make-up and my hair and out the door I went.  The couple, close to my age, were from Italy, spoke very broken English, and spoke among themselves in Italian and got several calls in Italian from their kids along the way.  We didn't talk much at first, only a few pleasantries along the way.  I honestly couldn't yet tell if they made me or not!  About an hour outside Boston the Turnpike turned to a standstill and it appeared we were gonna be up to an hour late for the appointment. Thanks to GPS, I re-routed and went the rest of the way off the highways, through the suburbs, over the hills, and through the tunnels, back through the neighborhoods and got there in the nick of time.  I dropped them off and gave the gentleman my cell number and said I have to find out where to park my car, so when you're done,  just call me and I'll find you.  He said what's your name? I almost screwed that one up but said Jessica, call me Jess!   He did call, I got my car out of the parking garage,  and promptly found them. In the interim I sat in Starbuck's for a while sipping, no gulping, coffee, 2 large cups,  and walked around the district streets some.

On the way back, we talked quite a bit, learning a little about each other and where we each lived.  At the end of the ride, the gentleman stuck his head back in, and said, "Hey Jess, you did a good job, thank you!.  What a great feeling! Only thing, I'm gonna have to deal with it when they call for their next appointment and  they ask for Jessica😁 Oh well😍

Dear Jessica,

Happens I use a Medicaid cab twice a week to go to an adult social program an hour away. Tip them a small tip each way, (wish I could tip them more, but I can't because I have a very low income).

Am glad I have a professional, clean and sober driver.

If they had to hang around all day, I would pay for their meal at a restaurant and to hang out at a coffee house.

That Italian couple were probably seeking the advice of a specialist, and I rejoice that they were in your care!

Yours truly,

Monica

Bravo Jess,

I did similar on Friday, woke up in the morning and decided I wanted to be a bit girly...threw on some boot cut jeans, did minimal makeup to conceal my shadow, and off to work I was.  It was one of the best work days I have had.

Live,

Tilly

Tilly, what happened with your co-workers?  Had they seen you before as Tilly?

There are a few that knew already, the rest I don't think noticed any difference.  I don't exactly have girly tshirts to wear, so with jeans that aren't emblazoned it was probably more about what I felt.  I have been wearing makeup to conceal shadow for a couple weeks anyways.

Love,

Tilly
