    Yikes, everything was turned upside down today. My boss informed me that we have been told not to send anyone to Haiti. Seems that the 82nd Airborne may have taken our job away. icon_sad.gif

    On a positive note I got my job offer letter in writing, err adobe writing today. I immediately started filling out my paperwork and e-mail it back to them. I should officially start as a permanent employee next week icon_cheers.gif

    Well, it's finalized and I won't be going to Haiti. Now I need to call WGU and get started on finishing this Bachelor degree :)

    On to finishing the A+ before WGU starts so I can save a little bit of money icon_wink.gif

    I currently work as a contractor in Afghan with the HHC 82nd Airborne DSTB. I fought the war in Iraq with the 82nd Airborne 319th Airborne Field Artillery Regiment in 2003, 2004, 2006. I was actually an Artillerymen in the U.S. Army until I got out in 2006 AFTER being wounded in my 3rd tour with the 82nd. I bet most of the "Hard Working Geeks" on here couldn't stand up to Airborne troops. They don't want to be in Haiti anymore than the next man, trust me. They'd much rather be jumping out of C-130s and drinking in Fayetteville on the weekends. Go Airborne. All American, that's the 82nd. They work harder than anyone on a computer, and get paid pennies to protect the nation. Hoooah!

    I love the military, but the one thing they seem to often miss is obvious humor icon_rolleyes.gif

    Dude, he was joking! On that thought, trust me I wouldn't want to go down there unless I had the military with me. That place is a complete mess.
