The delivery arrived this morning, and we’re 80-thousand strong.
Two semi-loads.
Eighty-thousand times three, actually.
It wouldn’t all fit in the storage trailer.
When Steve told us about the upcoming delivery in Monday’s staff meeting, I gasped, “Where will we put them all?”
Steve misunderstood and gave me quite a look: “In the coaster structure, of course.”
Good grief. Maybe I need to darken the shade of my hair a tad.
Eventually, the facts came out — we’ll fit all we can in the storage trailer and the rest will be stacked next to it.
Closer inspection reveals a bit more information.
Screws?
According to Steve, we were to receive the following:
- 80,000 bolts
- 80,000 nuts
- and 80,000 washers
There was no mention of screws.
Maybe that is a bonus barrel. You know–buy 80,000 bolts, get a free barrel of screws.
With the end of the month comes park-wide inventory. I know April is looking forward to counting all that plush in her department.
Wonder who counts the bolts?
