overseas container forms

 it was a weird day with instant messaging. i got one from somebody i didn't know, about a fedex package that was sent inter-office to where i am at. i recalled scanning it to customer service when it arrived, as there was no mention of the bank i work for on it. so i had the fedex label on top, with the bank's name  on it. this was a bill of lading about overseas containers. so i was called about it, at first the dude said to overnight it somewhere, but that changed and was told to have it ready for somebody to pick up. the lady called me and had trouble finding the facility, and entered through the branch. i let the branch manager know that somebody was arriving. it was picked up a little after midday, then i went to lunch, and i was given a business card by who picked it up. i was informed that i had saved the company thousands of dollars, and figured this meant i would get points for a gift card, but at this point just an e-card. the other visitors of the day were about the check printer, installing the maintenance kit. still waiting for the fix on the other one, it needs an expansion tray. the technician that did it was from nebraska, and a little odd that his colleague showed up during the installation, the dude who had worked on it before. some confusion about who was assigned the ticket. but i didn't care who did it. when i was driving home there was a talk-radio show on and they spoke of baseball player hank aaron. my first guess was that he had died, and i was correct. he had just been in the news being shown getting a covid vaccine this month. the 'big bang theory' rerun was when howard had sheldon clean his closet and a letter from his dad was found. i went on a walk in the evening and found 1 cent. there was a hockey game on after watching the news, st. cloud state vs. miami of ohio. it was about to start as i was heading to the hy-vee in eagan for my weekly grocery order. when i got back it was midway through the 2nd period and st. cloud was trailing 2-1. but st. cloud got a goal near the end of the 2nd, and early in the 3rd, to win it 3-2.
