Award Winning Stupid

I work for three stupid people. They aren’t any brand of stupid, they are award winning stupid. I’ll refer to them as R, S, and O. (they might search the inter webs thus the anonymity).

O wants everything done immediately and doesn’t understand that we cannot do everything at once. He screams mission at [...]

Let’s look forward to the year 2000

Most of my future I can figure out with some form on certainty. I will get home some time during the month of May. I will get married to a fantastic spitfire of a woman later this summer. We will spend a week in Kauai and have a fantastic time. I will start my [...]

Additional details

A few weeks ago I wrote a single post titled approved. Here is the rest of the info.

Over the last six years I’ve been dreaming of ways to exit my current career field and continue on in the military while doing a different job. A few weeks ago my wish was finally granted. [...]

Stuck

A few days ago I left on another trip and to be the “fixer.” We did what we had to and I put some stuff on a pallet. We thought that we were going to get out today but it wasn’t meant to be. I’m stuck here for yet another day but at least [...]

Photos

Routine

Traveling

I’ve traveled on a C130 and a C17 and numerous other civilian aircraft. All of them have had one thing in common: fixed wings. Recently I took a trip on a Black-hawk Helo and it was awesome. I had to travel to another base to inspect some stuff and we found it was far [...]

This isn’t the Hilton

This place isn’t the Hilton, Sheraton, or Best Western. Think of it as a scattered Motel 6… that sublets your room to other people.

I wish were sleeping in tents. Really, I wish we had tents instead of containerized housing units. First and foremost, I could have some privacy as its fairly easy [...]

The wait sucks

In 13 hours I will know the results. In 13 hours the results of the job “interview” will be available for all to see. In 13 hours I might be happy or I might be waiting until next year so that I can try again.

I’m waiting on promotion results to arrive and [...]

Done

The test is over and now I can get back to my normal routine… oh wait a minute. I’ve got to register for a math class and read a book that is sitting on my desk. Damn, it appears that it is never going to end.
