In Letter 19 of the Grandpa's Love Letter series, Grandpa is getting things done! The way he talks about work is similar to how I think about it. As an archives and records management consultant, I love creating order out of chaos. For me, that usually means advising clients on improving how their information flows throughout its lifecycle. For Grandpa, that means streamlining the creation of garments.
