HR - What do they do all day?

I wrote my new company another email today asking them about parking, health insurance, and work wardrobe. The HR assistant yesterday did not respond, so today I called, then email her supervisor to get answers. I didn't hear back from her 'til after 5:30 - I did not like that. If that's how slow and unresponsive the people act at HR, what does that say about the company overall? Well, it is nonprofit, perhaps that's the norm.

I hung out with Megan tonight. We went to a new cafe / tea place in the Long's Drug plaza in San Gabriel. I forgot to get their name. Megan ordered their "beauty" tea. I got myself some Taiwanese shaved ice with plum sauce on top. Under the ice I had pineapple chunks, grass jelly, lychee jelly, boba, and aloe bits. It was tangy and refreshing. The owner was very sweet, cordial and friendly. She told us they just opened the place two months ago. So far so good. We will come back for sure.
