STARTING Monday 23 AUGUST

You can log your hours by email.  I'm going to cut a bit of time out of your day and pull the log book from the firehouse.  You can then continue to work whatever hours you want to/can and simply shoot an email to the surfnavarrebeach@gmail.com email address.  Be sure to give me a name, date, and hours worked and location.  You no longer have to schedule ahead of time, simply report hours after the fact.

I report hours to the county on the 1st day of each month, so please have all hours in prior to that to have them counted.

You are also not stuck with the 9-12 12-3 3-6 hour blocks.  Do what you can when you can and report the hours. 

Changing the logging method should save about 15 minutes of your day, and we all know that can add up over time.  I'd rather have you on the beach.  The IDs, if you haven't picked it up yet, and the vests and information books are still in the firehouse lobby.
