remediation checks

 i had to look up 'remediation' when it was the description used for the largest volume, by far, on any business line for the checks to print- nearly 26 thousand. it says 'the action of remedying something'. i noticed that these were likely all small amounts, due to the final total across all checks being 83 thousand, an average of less than 4 dollars a check. there was another file from this business line, but it was just 21 checks, the normal volume. so i told them the smaller file will go out same-day, and when my boss saw all of this i was told to send out 2 thousand or as many as 4 thousand per day. another supply order had to be placed for the check stock and the envelopes, and the one made the first of the month hasn't arrived yet. before this, the largest file i had seen was 9 thousand and typically the highest volume day in any given week was 6 thousand. no advance notice was given about it. during my walks for the day i found 12 cents. i still went out walking despite the steady rain. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when sheldon studied humor, and penny had her scene cut. it was followed by the one where howard and amy did science work together. it led to bernadette conning sheldon into doing chores, much like in 'tom sawyer' by mark twain.
