aaaaaaargh
Feb. 27th, 2013 06:42 pmI fucking hate admin days. Somehow, I've managed to avoid most of the ones we've had since I've been on shift. But today was just a nightmare.
Admin days, for better or worse, as so we don't have to go on 'leave' for having a four day weekend. It's a stupid bureaucratic rule that basically ensures that, no matter what, we are working four days a week. Even though our schedule is supposed to be 4 on, 3 off, 3 on, 4 off. And they're supposed to be a 6 hour day, and most of the time they are! Today was not a 6 hour day, though.
And I'm stupid exhausted because of it. Originally, there was no plan given to us for today's day. None, so I assumed the plan was show up at 8 for the Current Intelligence Brief, go 'PT' for an hour and a half, "shower" for two hours, and then go home.
But, no, I got a last minute text about a commander's call at 3. So I figured, "Okay, show up at like 12, then..." BUT NO, SOMEONE SCHEDULED ORGANIZED PT AT 9:30??? AND THEN SAID THE COMMANDER WOULD BE THERE? fucking jerks. So I showed up at 9:30, finally get to leave at 5:30 after all is said and done. And the commander didn't even show up at 9:30 for PT with us.
Keep in mind that between PT and the commander's call, I had literally nothing to do. There wasn't a plan, I'm current on my medical stuff, and my ancillary training is all up to date. I wasn't on the bad-boy list for mock PT tests or any of our Go, No Go requirements.
Today was SUCH. A MONUMENTAL. WASTE. OF MY TIME.
And I'm mad about it, and my ankle and knee are killing me from walking around in blues all day. I hate that uniform with the passion of a thousand suns. Argh, fml.
Good news, I guess, is I get Friday off! So... that's something, right? H. Hahaha.
orz. I want to go to bed and it's only 7 o'clock. Where the fuck has my energy gone? I'm tired all the damn time now.
arrrrrgh.
