I Think We're Going To Be Slow

We completed our last service today; everyone was back in the funeral home by noon. Yesterday my immediate supervisor went around to the various hospitals, nursing homes, and hospice facilities. He likes to introduce himself to any of the nurses he hasn't met, keep our name on their minds, and generally just do a little meet and greet and PR. He also uses these visits to get a sense of how things are going; how full the facilities are and so forth. The indications he received are that things are slow, with a lot of empty beds and no new patients coming in. This means that we don't have a lot of imminent calls pending, so it looks like we'll be doing a lot of busy work until things change.
