I didn`t realy want to post here, because I get the feeling I am a realy Punchy prick, who spoils for a fight far to often. And then today I thought, we yeah you are, but nowhere near as much as you used to be.
And seeing as a few are in college and having problems with some idiots, I decided to post my time in college
2003 I was in College for 2 and a half years, Had left the Army in `95 and need to get my Qualifications in German, and was therefore being taught to suck eggs for 2,5 years.
I was on my bike 24/7 365 days in the year. Got of at collage and am having a brew in one of the breaks. Stood alone in one corner this little balb headed kid jack boots and braces walks up to me "Hey, you can`t stand here"
He`s like 19 if at all, and I am 32. So I look at him "What?"
"You can`t stand here, this is our corner"
"What?"
"You can`t stand here, this is the Nationals Only Zone"
I had understood from the begining what he was on about, I just couldn`t be assed to entertain him. So I show him the Bike Vest I am wearing. Brit Desert Jacket, cut down to a vest, All my Rank, Course Insignia, (Daggar Wings, Swords, Flags) Name plate, and on the back a big Union Flag and St George.
I turned half round and said "You see that" pointing at the Brit Flag "That mean we are STILL an OCCUPYING POWER now F*ck off" just as 2 of his mates walk out to us.
They just looked so dumb founded, all the other kids on the yard burst out laughing, and all 3 of the little NAZI pricks disapeared very quickly.
I am all for Patriotism, and being proud of being whatever, but anything right wing realy grips my goat.
Hey Tho, I go through this on a weekly basis with my supervisor. I had to tell her about the PTSD and she uses that against me. I went to my union rep and the EEO. I have filed a formal grievance(sp?) against her at the advice of the union. EEO says that I am protected under the American Disabilities Act and the state is running scared now. They are afraid of a law suit on my part. Which I am actually thinking about, but only on principal. Don't mess with vets.angry at my boss who tried to give me low marks on attendance in my eval today... I sat there and when she said it... (you went to the doctor a lot... I have to mark you low...) I told her "every day I took off was an appt to the VA... I am going to the VA because YOU told me to go to the desert... YOU told me to go to Lebanon, to the Kurdish lands... etc.. you called us heroes for it, toasted us down at the bar...... now you wanna mark me down for getting the care I need to recover from it... what f*cking hypocrisy" lol... it felt good... all these wanna be patriotic bastards...
I told her I choose my fights wisely... and this one was not one I wanted to start... but ya.. I am keeping copies etc... of everything.. and wow... I am getting angrier typing this..
Actually I am thinking I do wanna fight this one.. this is a fight for us..
I am IT too and I hate computers... honest.. lol well cept my one at home here...
It's definetly a love hate relationship. I always seem to be fixing something or upgrading something. It always seems to happen when I just want to go and check my mail that I get some 'important upgrade now' message. That's when I go make a cup of coffee because I know I'm gonna' be there a while.
Guess I'm lucky that I can fix just about anything. I once saw this cartoon where this guy's wife was talking to him in their kitchen. Everywhere you looked were old, and outdated items still in working condition. The caption was: "I know you can fix it, I just want a new one".
