My dad spent most of his time in the Army in Germany and loved every minute of it. I, in my 15 years, have only experienced Frankfurt from the Terminal, and three weeks of Hohenfels on the way to Kosovo. I am not pleased.

gently caress, man, I want to vent but I'm not sure if I'm gonna get found out. And EBH at this point is going to give me the same rigmarole they gave me the last two times. Anyone know some good anon posting places? Because today has me loving fuming.

On HHC command chat: we lucked out because our Bde commander got mad at our old HHC captain for something dumb, so he got pushed out and replaced with the best cpt we have. I legitimately respect my HHC command team, which surprises me given my views on the rest of the unit.

I know we had work/life balance chat before, but let me say this: The mentality of having to work 24 hr ops before you are in the field because your boss has no impulse control is loving stupid and needs to die. And if I hear 'just knock out the high priority stuff' from people who treat every tasking as a life-death situation then I'm going to slap someone with a stapler. I know that the old saying 'this isn't the Army I joined' is a cliché, but holy poo poo is it right.

The loving Army Navy game... Never have I hated the West Point assholes in my unit more than for this loving bullshit.

So, my grandfather just passed away. He had a stroke a few weeks ago, was recovering up until this morning, and then fainted. Blood pressure dropped, organs started failing, and he slipped into a coma. He passed about an hour ago. Had to head back into the office to sign some hand receipts, 1SG and Commander see me, ask me if I'm alright. Tell me I'm still going to JRTC, which I expected. 1SG then says that when he first heard me talk about this, he thought it was some sort of ploy to get out of it. My 1SG thinks, or thought, that I faked my grandfather's death to get out of a month-long rotation. To get out of two measly weeks in the box. As if I haven't spent years deployed away from my family, or as if I wasn't able to take emergency leave when by brother-in-law died, or as if I haven't already deployed with this unit before. And now two weeks is what I fake the death of my family for. Two weeks. loving AAA+ Leadership right there!

Flying over to Korea, and our flight was delayed 15 minutes. An hour ago. Guess which airline and win a prize*! *Prize is the undying shame of serving in the US Armed Forces.
