Day 3

Today I was coming from another part of Manhattan in the morning so I calculated my travel time bad I ended up showing up about 10 mins late, but Anya is usually 15 mins late, even though that doesn't make it an excuse to be late for me, I just figured he might be a bit lenient with tardiness. He didn't say anything so it was fine. I started off today basically on some of the stuff I was working on yesterday I finished the Glenn residence fabric schemes for all the rooms in their project binder. I then sorted through rug samples that were to be kept and ones to be returned to the showrooms, I took photos of the ones to be returned in case he wanted them again for an upcoming project since he loved them so much, Anya told me to take a picture of the front and then also the back so if needed he can find the information right there if he wanted to order the sample again. He then asked me to organize his closet a bit more. I then got started on the designers personal design binder since he is doing a lot of decorating in his own home, I copied pictures of some furniture pieces he would be using as well as put together some of the fabrics in a fabric scheme that he is going to be using for his living room. After lunch he asked me to assist him with taking off hardware off his new chest of drawers so they can be sent to a brass company to be re-plated with a polished nickel finish. Since I had to go uptown and drop off the hardware and pick up some lamp harps for his bedroom lamps, I figured by the time I did that and came back Anya would be gone for the day, since she is not going to be there tomorrow she wanted to explain a few things that I would be doing tomorrow when she wasn't there. Basically she showed me how to create tear sheets on the computer, and how to create fabric resource sheets for the binders. So I went on my way to the Brass company explained what he wanted done with the chest hardware and then called him to tell him they aren't sure if they can get a sleleton key to match the hardware he has and if they would it would be customized and cost anywhere within the high hundreds! for a KEY ppl! wow. He told me he would call the company and discuss it with them himself. So I stopped by the home depot to grab those lamp harps he wanted and they didn't have the size he was requesting so then I walked uptown 10 blocks to Gracious Homes and they had it so I purchased those and left with the intention of returning to the office since I got everything done pretty quick, but then realized I  left my phone and notebook with all of tomorrows errands in it and had to go back that took 20 mins when I looked at my watch it was about 5:20 so i decided I would just go home and give him the harps first thing in the morning, they left the option up to me whether or not I wanted to come back to the office afterwards or just finish up my day so I did. and that was my third day!
