Job update

So I have decided to maintain my job here in Savannah. Today was my day to quit if there ever was a day. However, with new news of business picking up here at my current post, I have decided to remain here. I will be this brand new company’s first 1SG (First Sergeant). I guess I have found myself excited about the possibilities, but I think I would’ve prefer a little change of scenary, but ohh well. Plus one of my biggest supporters is coming to run my Battalion soon and will open up some other avenues from me to move down.

I do wish I had a spouse to share these moments with… I will likely be finished with all of the fun stuff the Army has to offer before I have anyone to share it with. Again I am not going to cry over something I have no real control over..

On another different, yet related note, my date tonight was rescheduled to an undetermined day. Hopefully it will be soon!

Lifetime update

So I have dedicated my entire life to the service of my country. I am currently serving under an indefinite contract which can keep me in the Army till 2025 at the far end. I have to ask to get out, my contract as no sure exit point before the max. I start a new job in a few days. One, that I should be super excited about, but find myself more and more depressed over.

Depressed, that is a good term to best describe me right now. I have decided that I want a family. The lack of hope for one is bringing my morale down……. help…….I have a ton more to say, when I get home, which will be very soon, I will write a lot more. I have tons to write about. It’s freezing and raining here and I need to rest.

The Week

The past week was a challenge. It started in Europe and is ending here on my couch. Work was interesting, I have been offered two different positions. One is here in Savannah and the other is in Seattle. My boss here would prefer that I stay here and originally pitched it as the only position available. However that same evening (Thursday), his boss called him and asked that I consider a position in Seattle. I accepted the offer in Seattle. I expect to be officially given the job no later then Wednesday afternoon. It was pitched as an immediate assignment and would require me to move now, but hopfully I wll be allowed to spend Christmas with my family. We shall see.  Hopefully I will be wearing a diamond within the next two or three weeks. I will be excited and surely post when it happens. I will become a member of the Diamond Club. ha ha ha. Army stuff!

The formal is this week, Friday. I am taking the super cougar, as she has become known amongst my close friends. It should be a great time. She is also escorting me to a cocktail party thrown by my Battalion on Wednesday night. I will give you the details later on.
