what a week
So today brings to a close one of the longest weeks I think I will ever have. It was longer than the 10 days I spent in the field 2 years ago, longer than the summer I was away from amber for 4 months, longer even than the time I have been gone from SC. Ok so thats a bit of an exageration. Seriously though when your day starts between 4 and 430 so you can get to work early and get stuff done before PT then go for an hour and do a USR go to class for 3 hours lunch is spent doing a USR then back to class until 1700 finishing the night with paperwork, emails, and data entry..... well lets just say getting home tonight at 7 was the shortest day of the week by about 2 hours.
What am I babbling about.... Well right now I have 3 full time jobs (meaning normally 8 hours a day). I am in class for my job, which is great (more to follow). I am working on a report for two units that will get sent to almost every echelon above me (USR). I am also still functioning as a BN S-1. Lets just say stress is a small part of the overall game right now. Actually its not too bad. I have been able to run on my own this week and ended up logging about 12 miles to this point, with another 3 or 4 tomorrow. I met a very nice LT (I have to figure out if she has a boyfriend or not). And I have earned the trust and respect of my commander, I am pretty sure. Oh yeah tomorrow is a Brigade Unfurling Ceremony and guess who got nominated to MC, yeah.
Oh yeah, USR.... imagine if you will all the aspects that comprise an average business with 400 employees. Now imagine a yearly report that details everything about the company from number of employees, equipment, training, etc.... you get the point. Its detailed. Now do it every month. That in the nutshell is what USR means to me right now, and I am completing 2 of them. For all the guys that ever fuss about PMS, girls too for that matter, I don't want to here it this is worse. Cause the computers I work on for this have less memory than an Apple 2 (ok well maybe a hair more not much). My three letter word is worse than yours.
