Would appreciate some prayers for Wednesday on. Derrick goes to
orientation on Wednesday at Walmart. Then we will find out when
he starts. He is going to be outside part of the time from what I
understand. So this weather isn't something I like.

But got him a warm hat, gloves and heavy socks to start. Will get
more socks soon. And some shirts and then when we find out what
Pants he needs.

Probably some more thermals right away.

Oh dear! Working outside in this weather.

I will certainly keep Derrick in my thoughts for his orientation. Hopefully he can get information as to what sort of outdoor exposure he'll get, and you can work out the clothes from there. Never can have too many warm socks, that's for sure.

Do you guys get wool undershirts? The kind I like best are double face: wool lined with cotton on the inside; these are very warm but do not itch. They can really amp up whatever you wear over the top.

I wonder if Walmart provides some sort of thermal jumpsuits for the workers in winter. But in this cold, their usual stuff still might not be enough.

Aghh, methinks I'd need a spacesuit! How do breathe in that air?! Doesn't it freeze your breathing passages?

Anyway. Best wishes for Derrick. And I hope the outside part of his work will be a very small part.

Question

Donna,

How did it go today, with Derrick's orientation at Walmart?

Did he find out more about what he will be doing?

Any news on how much/little he will be outdoors?

Well god always has a reason.

Derrick is going to meet the person that would be in charge at Purdue.
Where there are some jobs open in the area he really wants to work.

On Monday. He would have all summer off with this job. And I believe
they said no weekends.
