good luck with interview . . .

Now 15 minutes past call time.  Phone not ringing. [bang]
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Called to see if there was a problem.

Interviewer is out today.  [bang]

Couldn't send an e-mail to alert me to this?  [thumbsdown] [thumbsdown]

no they can't, they must keep you all day from being productive since they themselves cannot be productive since the person that was supposed to call you is not productive and pro-active enough to inform you in advance about the situation .. .  

at the end, it depends on perspective . . .

It is noted.

Unfortunately my cool, best job in the world, is only a part time gig.  (National Guard).  Would be awesome if State budget would allow my position to return to AGR.

Ah yes! I remember when I had a Part time gig like that. I use to like it when Ops called me up askin if I wanted to go somewhere. Like south America, or Japan, or Keflavik. I thought it was one of the coolest jobs in the world, and then for some reason I got tired of it.

I spent two years with this same unit after coming off active duty.  It was still an attack bn, with AH-1's and OH-6's.  It was a lot of fun.

It was also during the big real estate boom, and in conjunction with my deranged focus on an MBA & JD, my priorities got out of whack.

Fortunately, even after such a long absence, a friend was not only able to get my focus straight, but was also in a position to get me back in.

I've been to Kerflavik-nice little town.
