Sounds of Thunder!
Here I am in my hooch as they have been called (rooms) And I hear the sounds and echoes of thunder in the background. The first real rain was last night, quite refreshing really and quite cold. Im glad I wasn't out in it when it did a mini down pour. Oh and here we are with the rain again. *grin* Glad to be off today, though that is a long story..*sigh*
Had a conversastion with the NCO I work with, he is supposed to be in charge but yet I was told that I am in charge. Now yes it has been only 5 days since that was put out, and yes I have been gloating to a degree about being the NCOIC (NCO IN Charge) Its an easy job really, lots of polotical BS. Well anyway, the conversation went bad, for me really, I have a strange way of going about learning how to approach people with things I need to talk to them about if I don't know them too well. So I went to another soldeir we work with and told him that I had an issue with the NCO, poking around with a few comments to see how I could approach said NCO. Since he loves to clown people all the time I don't think he would have taken me seriously when I went to him. He came up to me after the meal and got pissed that I demeaned him as a man by going and complaining to someone else and not to his face. I can see his point in that but It wasn't my intention to badmouth him behind his back and leave it at that. I was going to talk to him since I was told he would be serious about that kind of conversation, lo and behold he came to me.
He got pissed off, cursed at me (which I don't like in the least I don't curse at anyone lest it is in joking or it just comes out, but I never do it straight to someones face. I feel I can get my point across just fine without it) and proceeded to take any time I may have had these next few months. Yes I have had a good amount of off time I can't complain in the least. But we share leadership now, Even though I am supposedly Above him in position. so heres the story, Since this happened he has left after the dinner meal, to go to the gym and work out leaving me in charge of the midnight meal, No problem really but he has left EVERY SINGLE DAY. Its not fair to me. I work every day, every other day we worked out that I would come in late and work only midnight meal. But the days between I work both dinner and midnight, And he still leaves.
I told him it wasn't fair and he told me he could do whatever the fuck he wants and leave whenever the hell he wants and there isn't anything I can do about it. Well I -can- do something about it and he will hate me for life if I do. I have a responsiblity to the DFAC (dining facility) because I am a food service specialist. I am the most senior cook there, and since there are only two cooks on my shift I have to try and give my soldiers time. But yes we argued a bit and he told me that if I want to be on the normal shift again then fine, I will come in Every single day, work both meals and that will be it. Its my job to be there 12 hours, I told him if I were to be be back on the shift then he had to be there every single day to make sure things got done, since Im just a grunt and he is the actual NCO. Well we had worked out off days, today for me and sunday for him (Hip hop night for dancing) He said I lost my day, And I told him he had to be here on sunday, etc etc. Well the conversation ended and I was pretty pissed off, talked to a couple buddies and we started to play monopoly, by this time my senior NCO, the one above us cooks and is also a cook, comes in and they all play spades for a while, The NCO that I talked with and took my time, comes and talks to me again saying in an odd apology sort of way that he didn't apreciate how I went to someone else when I could have gone straight to him, I conveyed It wasn't my intent to belittle him. And everything was reversed, So here I am with my off day and he has his still.
All in all I kind of had a hunch that he was going to talk to me again, He still left early after I had worked all day, but whatever. I have just under three months till I leave this place I really don't want that much headache. Ill step up and do what I have to. Its really too easy, I just hope I get some sort of statement at least stating what job I performed in the DFAC.
I still miss my angel like crazy, my sanitly slipping between conversations. I won't go crazy but it really sucks having to be so far away, unable to do anything to help her even if all I can do there is call, I miss her voice and I know she feels the same. I miss having her watch over me as I slept or when she would call me (the few times she did) And woke me up in the middle of the night, I may have been a little disgruntled for being woke up. But I can assure that any call from her is always welcome, I just may be a little upset over loosing sleep since I don't get much at all. I love her so much more than words could ever convey. Mmmuah! Love you!
Thats all I have for now folks, take care out there.
