I was cleaning out an old email address I use for spam that I will ignore for years at a time earlier this month. Turns out I gave that address to IRR and they had emails talking about all the trouble I'll get in if I don't show up for muster from years ago and by the way do you want to reenlist? Jokes on them, the only one they actually mailed to me certified mail ended up getting cancelled like a month later when sequestration murdered budgets.

Am I the only person who's never had to show up for muster? I wouldn't mind sitting through a couple hours of "pretty please re-enlist?" for beer and pizza money. :shrug:

I got calls from recruiters while I was in college doing ROTC. Prior to me signing the official ROTC contract, several tried to get me to drop out of college and forfeit my scholarship, because "hands on, real work" and "guaranteed airborne infantry slots."

I had one in 3 years. They were looking for a specific career field and had literally nothing they could use me for, even if I were interested.

The one time I had to go, it was maybe 10 or 15 minutes of repeatedly saying "sorry, not interested" to an unenthusiastic SSG in his office. Since I combined the trip with a run to the grocery store, including "net" driving time it was $270 for 40 minutes of my time tops. It was great.

Nah he was inside as I walked by. Just noticed and kept walking. If he was outside I'd have asked him for some water.

My partner at work just announced she’s getting a new job and leaving in four weeks, three of which she’ll be absent. I’ll get to take on her share of our ever-expanding workload until her replacement is recruited and hired. Then I’ll get to train them as well while still doing the work of two people.

In the not so distant future I have to decide who in my current client environment I want to keep, approach them, and offer them employment provided that we win a big contract that is coming up for recompete. A good work friend is currently occupying the job that I would want, so I'm going to eventually have to decide if I want to shiv him for the job. He's old, so there's a high probability this would be the end of his employment. Then there's the standard 30-day transition thing with contracts, so I'll have to deal with everyone I've worked with for years knowing that I was doing thumbs up/down on who to keep, some of which will have been working there for a decade until then. Gonna be rad.

In the consultant life cycle, this is the stage where the instructors inform you that you have to kill and eat the pet you've raised for most of your time.

Went to an ENT doc for an outpatient procedure on my nasal cavities. It's like the third time I've had the procedure done (it's complicated) but this time he prescribed me percocets for pain management if I needed it since it was a little further than he went before.



Fuuuuuuck that. I'll stick with motrin and beer.
